Tarkus, The Yes Album and Fragile in the same poll? Are multiple votes allowed?
I stand with Roger Waters, I stand with Joan Baez, I stand with Victor Jara, I stand with Woody Guthrie. Music is revolution

Nursery Cryme
Asylum
Fragile

'Tarkus' without a doubt (and yes, I love side 2 as well) and 'Pictures' is also stunning - ELP live were a force to be reckoned with.  As for the other biggies, those Yes albums are too uneven and much as I love 'Nursery Cryme' they were yet to hit their stride...

I narrowed it down to 10 poll options instead of my usual 25 options to hopefully make it easier to choose. At least that was the theory anyway. Smile
Thanks for trying, but among these albums, is quite hard to choose one. Depending on the mood, I could pick one today, and change it tomorrow. Great, fantastic music in all of them.

Genesis - Nursery Cryme

Are multiple votes allowed? If not, then Emerson, Lake & Palmer - Tarkus. Otherwise, I'll add Genesis - Nursery Cryme and YES - Fragile.
 
EDIT: Multiple votes are not allowed.

No, I know how to behave in the restaurant now, I don't tear at the meat with my hands. If I've become a man of the world somehow, that's not necessarily to say I'm a worldly man.
