It was a toughie - I voted other: Queensryche - Mind Crime is very much a favourite. I listento  it often and the more I hear it the more I am impressed. Live Crime is better still.

and I add in Yes - Close to the Edge and Tales from Topographic Oceans.

I prefer the Who's Quadrophrenia, but between those two... I guess I sort of like the Wall more.

Roger Waters and Peter Gabriel are both seriously talented lyricists... the best that prog has to offer... if you ignore the fact Waters isn't really prog and Gabriel left the scene many years ago.

I vote for 'Lamb lies down' only because i feel the title track single from the 'Wall' albums completely puts me off the mood.

Voted Lamb.

Still listen to tracks off the Lamb regularly. The Wall is a good album, but lacks those moments of beauty the Lamb has, and can be alittle despairing.

Ultimately bored by endless ecstasy!

The Lamb for it's pure originality, integration of all instruments and a vocal dynamic and narration unbeatable in the last whenever....The Wall is excellent but ages whereas The Lamb is timeless and never dates.

The Lamb vs The Wall - Which is the 'Mother' of All Concept Albums?

I voted for The Lamb, what with the raven flying away with the castrated member and all, how could I not?

Discuss...
Marmalade...I like marmalade.
