A follow up to http://www.progarchives.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=133981&PID=6163310�" rel="nofollow - PA top 25: the longest song on each album Many fantastic songs and difficult enough to pick only five favorites from this one as well imo. Perhaps a little less stone cold prog classics as in the top 25. But I figured it could make for a just as interesting poll and "discussion". So yeah, please pick up to five favorites, and let us know which ones you voted for. Harmonium - Histoires sans paroles (17:12) Rush - Xanadu (11:04) Änglagård - Kung Bore (King Winter) (12:57) PFM - La Carrozza di Hans (6:46) Wobbler - From Silence to Somewhere (20:59) Yes - Yours Is No Disgrace (9:36) VdGG - Pioneers Over C. (12:05) Supertramp - Rudy (7:07) Dream Theater - Scene Six: Home (12:53) Renaissance - Song of Scheherazade (24:52) Mahavishnu Orchestra - One Word (9:54) Steven Wilson - Luminol (12:10) Gentle Giant - River (5:52) Genesis - In the Cage (8:15) Caravan - Nine Feet Underground (22:40) Gentle Giant - Proclamation (6:48) Dream Theater - Learning to Live (11:30) Museo Rosenbach - Zarathustra (20:49) Camel - Rhayader Goes to Town (5:20) Pink Floyd - Echoes (23:27) Frank Zappa - The Grand Wazoo (13:20) VdGG - Childlike Faith in Childhood's End (12:20) Banco - Il Giardino Del Mago (18:26) Frank Zappa - Inca Roads (8:45) Gentle Giant - His Last Voyage (6:27) Btw: It's 27-51, as I skipped Kind of Blue in the first poll. |

Echoes. That's the Pink Floyd song that resonates most with me.

I went with the three at the top of the list Rush, Harmonium and Anglagard. Picking two more from the rest was too hard, so I just went with what I felt like listening to right now, and added Mahavishnu Orchestra and Pink Floyd. ------------- "The wind is slowly tearing her apart" "Sad Rain" ANEKDOTEN |

| Oops, I originally missed that it was five, but listed more anyway. So aside from "Echoes" which I already voted for, I vote for "Nine Feet Underground", "Pioneers Over C", "His Last Voyage", and "In the Cage". I could have gone with the Banco del Mutuo Soccorso track, love the debut, but seeing Banco, I think of Banco as a later incarnation of BdMS that I am not into and will stick with my original post's order. I do like GG's "Proclamation" too, but "His Last Voyage" is more special to me. |

In the order I voted: VdGG - Pioneers Over C. (12:05) Pink Floyd - Echoes (23:27) Supertramp - Rudy (7:07) Wobbler - From Silence to Somewhere (20:59) Änglagård - Kung Bore (King Winter) (12:57) ------------- No, I know how to behave in the restaurant now, I don't tear at the meat with my hands.

| ^ Just some small talk based on an association I had made. My mind was not really on the task when I responded the first time -- distracted by other things, kind of sleepy too, which is why I even missed that you asked for us to choose five. I abbreviate it to BdMS, and tend to think of the Banco albums as the later albums released as Banco. I have seen others just say Banco for the whole shebang. No big deal. Had I thought about it at first, I later did, I would have remembered that that track was off the debut. BdMS is not band I have returned to much in many years and that epic was not a personal favourite off its album. Also maybe because it's under another initialised abbreviation, VdGG, my not-on-the-ball brain would have been more likely to expect the initialism of BdMS at the time. Speculating somewhat, as I don't quite recall my state of mind at the time. |

Pink Floyd - Echoes

Echoes, yeah, boring part of the majority here, and it is my first choice. Otherwise, Childlike Faith in Childhood's End, Song of Scheherazade, The Grand Wazoo (just ahead of Inca Roads, didn't want to give Zappa two votes), Il Giardino Del Mago. I just see that by voting The Grand Wazoo, now everything has at least two votes.

I think I went with: << Histoires sans mots >>, 'tramp's "Rudy," MO's "One Word," GG "His Last Voyage" and, I think, "Scheherazade" (but maybe "Nine Feet Underground" or "Inca Roads"). ------------- Drew Fisher https://progisaliveandwell.blogspot.com/ |
