H to He... over the other VDGG album. ------------- "The wind is slowly tearing her apart" "Sad Rain" ANEKDOTEN |

Quite a few I love here, but I am the first (and maybe last) to go with VdGG's The Least We Can Do is Wave to Each Other. Much as I really like H to He, The Least is a particularly special to me album that I seem to rate higher than most people. If that were not on the list, then I would have gone with King Crimson's Lizard. ------------- "Questions are a burden to others; answers a prison for oneself" (The Prisoner, 1967). |

Both King Crimson and specially VdGG are among my most loved albums. Snafu is great too. But my vote goes to the amazing Gentle Giant debut. -------------

Nothing I've heard I don't like here. A top ten would look something like this (some days, H to He and Lizard might switch places: Van der Graaf Generator - H to He, Who Am the Only One King Crimson - Lizard Gentle Giant - Gentle Giant King Crimson - In the Wake of Poseidon Van der Graaf Generator - The Least We Can Do is Wave to Each Other Curved Air - Air Conditioning East of Eden - Snafu Traffic - John Barleycorn Must Die Marsupilami - Marsupilami Audience - Friend's Friend's Friend |

| Both VDGG albums and Lizard. Vote for The Least We Can do as this seems the most neglected by voters out of these. I also like Air Conditioning, Snafu, Poseidon, Gentle Giant and John Barleycorn. |

Lizard ------------- Music has always been a matter of energy to me. On some nights I believe that a car with the needle on empty can run 50 more miles if you have the right music very loud on the radio. Hunter S Thompson |

1) Traffic: John Barleycorn Must Die 2) Gentle Giant: Gentle Giant 3) VDGG: H to He Like several of the albums in this list. Traffic, however, wins pretty easily. John Barleycorn is among my favorite albums GG is a good debut, but it's with the next album they really up their game. Killer is an awesome track, favorite song from VDGG. |
