Blessed distortion. What a concert! One of my top ten favorites.

Check out the electric side of Neil. He rocks with the best of 'em.
I've heard the stuff from the 80's, somewhere I have a cassette of Landing On Water friend gave to me.....he didn't like it LOL. I was too much of a metal/prog head then to like his music.

Too late now...

I'll pick Neal since I listen to his music.

Very good.

For my next poll, Neil Peart vs. Neil Diamond, or better yet, Neil DeGrasse Tyson vs. Mike Tyson. Kidding, by the way, just in case anyone should take that seriously. You never know. Neil Young is the heavyweight Mike Tyson in this Ne*l fight.

Gotta go with the innovator here, nothing against Neal Morse, but i've never heard anything and gone: "Wow! That sounds like Neal Morse!" Because though he is a good song writer, nothing he writes is unique or particularly distinguishable to him. Also, my favorite Spocks album is post Neal (Brief Nocturnes).

"Probably seems a very strange poll, but it makes a certain sense to me."

It's not a contest for me, but I expect that some will prefer Neal Morse since he is a big name in Prog circles. I think it's easy to draw musical comparisons. Solo singers with guitar as in above, collborations, more rockin' numbers such as:





But also because they both commonly have a message in their songs, and at times both might be called preachy in their own way.

Perish the thought that I only did this because their Christian names sound the same. :P

The only thing they have in common is their first name and it's not even spelled the same way. :P
