It's weird seeing these bumped polls. I look at my post on page one which was made over eight years ago and it feels like I wrote that yesterday (and my opinion hasn't changed in that time). I voted for Zepp despite it not being a particular favourite and Bombay Calling over Child in Time still.



Edit: I will add something that goes beyond my initial post in this thread. I think that I would have liked Child in Time more had I not already been familiar with It's a Beautiful Day's Bombay Calling (it's a bit like my sometime bias against movie and TV show remakes). It is a good song in its own right, and both bands based their tracks on Vince Wallace's theme according to Wallace. Wallace claims he came up with it in 1962 and taught it to LaFlamme , but the first Bombay Calling recording is credited to LaFlamme later of It's a a Beautuful Day, plus Vince Wallace, by The Orkustra (1967). https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ABkV4_Dv6ac
That's cool, I did not know that! I thought the riff was some sort of Bach rip-off... LOL
Just for completeness I'll add Gentle Giant - Nothing at all (1970) Big smile


P.S. My vote goes to Child In Time.
