When he rides, my fears subside.
For darkness turns once more to light. Through the skies, his white horse flies. To find a land beyond the night. |

Dull snooze of the yawn getting 32 votes is more of a concern to me

Now this one really is almost impossible. Quality abounds and each of them deserve a vote!
With difficulty I've narrowed it down to BSS and DSOTM. Can I have 2 votes?

This is a tough vote. My natural inclination is to always side with King Crimson, no matter the year. Pink Floyd, on the other hand, is a hit or miss band for me. I'll pick Dark Side because I don't think Pink Floyd ever topped it.

I'm not a huge ELP fan, but Brain Salad Surgery is a 5 star bonafide prog masterpiece. i don't rank it higher than the three big ones here though.

Dark Side for me. If it weren't for Battle of Epping Forest, I might have voted for Genesis.

As much as I love Yes, ELP, Genesis, Tull and King Crimson, The Dark Side of the Moon WAS 1973.

I had gave ELP a vote here, in someway like forseeing they were going to be one of least voted here, I think they deserve quite a few more than these miserable 6 votes here.

BSS gets my vote. After that TFTO. Both divide opinion but those bands were 'pushing the envelope' musically.
DSOTM and SEBTP just don't do it for me. Even though they have some exceptional tracks I just can't get excited listening to them and don't feel I'm being challenged in any way. I suspect its the lyrical content that elevates these albums and that's not so important to me.

I have never understood the love for SEBTP. For me it's half very good and half very boring. Dark Side is my choice.
