This occurred to me while i was scrolling down the top 250 list with Porcupine Tree's Fear Of A Blank Planet appearing above Gentle Giant's Acquiring The Taste

So, sounds like a fun idea! Post 2, or even more if you can swing it, album covers next to each other so that they together create a larger continous sort of picture. Doesn't matter if it's vertical or horizontal but should look like they go together!

Doesn't have to be limited to prog! Anything goes in my world LOL

BTW... you have to extend the screen until these two albums are horizonatally next to each other!
Otherwise they just stack on top of each other and make no sense :o

The opening post really cracked me up.  I'm going to have to think on it.  The Collins/Supertramp/Stones one is really good, too.

Released date are often when it it impacted you but recorded dates are when it really happened...

Yeah, this is one of those where it either strikes you at the moment or doesn't occur to you at all.

I just noticed that if the page isn't opened up sufficiently from left to right then some of these wont make sense. Like the Gentle Giant vs Steven Wilson.

They literally have to be horizontal to register!
