I was reminded of this with another poll pitting Genesis, Yes and Camel in a horse race. I found it tough before with this poll so didn't vote and still find it tough. It's fun to see Mandie's pregnant avatar and sig pic again.

My three favourites in the poll are Van der Graaf Gnerator, King Crimson and Pink Floyd, and I like Genesis, Camel and Yes about equally.

Hmm, today I vote for Pink Floyd and Camel. Of tracks, I'd rather listen to "Atom Heart Mother" and "The Embryo" along with "Nimrodel/ The Procession/ The White Rider" and "La Princesse Perdue". That band combo works very well, but in fact they all do. Smart combinations, I think.

The harder poll would be
Yes+Genesis+Floyd
or
VDGG+Camel+Gentle Giant
or
Zappa+KC+ELP
It's funny how the colors of the real world only seem really real when you viddy them on the screen.

Genesis - VDGG is pretty closer than I believed.

I'll go with a rapid math solution ^^
Yes 7.5/10 + Crimson 9.5/10 = 17/20
Floyds 9/10 + Camel 7/10 = 16/20
Genesis 9.5/10 + VdGG 9.5/10 = 19/20

  VdGG and Genesis are my favourite bands so it's very easy! I'm so glad that they are paired!

Voted option n°1.


Interesting - I would put them in EXACTLY the same order - BUT IN REVERSE!!!!

Since I loathe VDGG and dislike KC intensely, my vote goes to option 2.

I'll go with the Peters
But now my branches suffer
And my leaves don't bear the glow
They did so long ago

First option.
And then one day you find
Ten years have got behind you
No one told you when to run
You missed the starting gun

It makes me sad that Floyd/Camel is not #1.  And that that makes me sad, makes me even sadder!
