As cool as the late tracks are....I have to give a nostalgic nod to Crystal Ship. One of their first songs to grab me many years ago..... Still drooling for the day I can buy a Japanese mini of Weird Scenes....one of the few times I really love a compilation |

Not a single bad track on their first album so very hard to choose. For sheer unbridled pleasure - Take It as It Comes For prising open a hitherto forbidden erm...door for rock music that the forces of reaction have never been able to seal subsequently - The End -------------

| This keeps changing for me, but right now it's When The Music's Over. Such a simple, but great bass line to drive it! |

That would be fine if it were on their debut instead of Strange Days.  ------------- http://www.last.fm/user/Salty_Jon" rel="nofollow">

Kurt Weill did it better, but I can't go against The Alabama Song. ------------- "One had to be a Newton to notice that the moon is falling, when everyone sees that it doesn't fall. " |

Hi,
I'm going to abstain on this one.
There really is nothing in this album that I can not sit and go ... nice ... really nice ... and simply go away with it.
My favorite, and probably most important one, will always be "The Soft Parade" ... mostly because it is the one piece that forces you to look in the mirror, and most people refuse to do it! ------------- Music is not just for listening ... it is for LIVING ... you got to feel it to know what's it about!

| Wow! "Break On Through" is one of the greatest rock songs ever written for me. That latin beat during the verse and then turning into that heavy impact drive of a 4/4 beat is outstanding. How can you not tap or move your body as this song drives through you? Jim Morrison's voice throughout the song is one of the greatest rock vocal undertakings in this world! He is a progressive storyteller with a solid deep blues tone on this one. It's clearly one of the greatest rock songs in this world. |

The Crystal Ship, love the piano on that. It could just as easily have been Break On Through, Light My Fire or Take it As It Comes though. The End is actually the only track on the album I don't much care for. Maybe I'm not Prog!
