Red Queen... is one of my favourite albums as is Midnight Mushrumps. I was thinking of adding a couple of Gryphon tracks to my instrumentals list as well as some Amazing Blondel but have yet to decide. ATM I'm trying to decide which Eno tracks to include.
Talk about 'killing your babies.' Too many choices and I haven't enough brain cells.

Out of those choices i voted for 'Interstella Overdrive' i never get tired of that opening riff and then it takes you on a psychedelic journey!
I used to love Tubular Bells when it first came out but its been over played too much for me now.

Hmm, pretty dicey selections to choose from...
Even as a diehard Floyd fan, I still chose 'Red' over 'Interstellar Overdrive'  .
My favourite instrumental would have to be: Cluster One (naturally).
Interesting piece of trivia: Pink Floyd won a grammy for <Best
Instrumental> in 1994 for their song 'Marooned' off of The Division
Bell. And no, they were not on hand to receive the award in person.

My favorite instrumental goes to the Who with their incredible Sparks instrumental. Progressive Wise, it goes to LTE with 3 minute warning. Rush also has incredible intrumentals, as does DT, ELP, and the rest of them for that matter.

I voted King Crimson... but if I could choose any, I'd say Dream Theater's "Dance Of Eternity"... or "Instrumedley".
