Pick Five: I will go with Lizard, Supper's Ready, Nine Feet Underground, Il Giardino Del Mago, and Tarkus for this one. All of them are fantastic. Feel free to give an other choice to go with the five you nominate as well. I might turn this into a tournament! Smile

Supper's Ready is technically not a side long piece because you had horizons right before it.

I'm afraid I had to go all with Pink Floyd and Yes. Echoes, Atom Heart Mother, Dogs, Close to the Edge, and Gates of Delirium.

Same with Dogs. Whereas Thick as a Brick is TECHNICALLY TWO sides long.

But pedantic rubbish aside (which is hard for me hehe), Mumps.

Whilst Echoes and Supper's Ready are wonderful, my vote would go to Midnight Mushrumps by Gryphon.
Absolutely sublime.

No, I know how to behave in the restaurant now, I don't tear at the meat with my hands. If I've become a man of the world somehow, that's not necessarily to say I'm a worldly man.

Just a technical note, and I am sure the OPer knew this anyway, 'Supper's Ready' is prefaced by 'Horizons' and similarly 'Mumps' by 'Underdub' (and 'Dogs').  'Karn Evil 9' is famously a side and a half!

ELP - Tarkus
Yes - Close to the Edge
Triumvirat - Illusions on A Double Dimple

And as stated above...

JT - Thick as a Brick
Genesis - Supper's ready
ELP - Karn Evil 9

Don't technically meet the OP criteria of "A" side

Correct--But I still voted for it as for the past several months I listen to all the versions I have of it--and seem to enjoy all of them more and more.
