Red for me, but they're all good.

This is a neat idea! You should make a sequel.

I picked brown, it was a good, diverse selection.  Though if the Pink they chose was one of the options, I definitely would have gone with it instead Thumbs Up

I've picked white, all are very good albums. Black is a close second, just slightly less good as white IMO.

A great poll indeed Clap. I put my dualistic shirt on: it's a choice between  Black and White for me.
I vote for White for the following reasons:
  • It's the only color from which I have all the albums.
  • Part the Second is the album I played most often during the last month.
  • At this moment, White is underrated compared to Black (4 against 13).

Finally went with black. It's like asking a child to chose a gift when there's one bigger and heavier than all the others...

I feel probedConfused.  I damn near went with black because of the strong albums.  But then I thought how the Decemberists are right around the corner from annoying me to no end (just an opinion - it's getting to me).  So I went with Yellow, an interesting collection. 

Put it this way, I could probably replay the first four albums in Black from my memory I know them so well, so I'm picturing being able to get along without them if it meant not having to hear the Decemberists get more and more annoying.

Cool poll.

Why must my spell-checker continually underline the word "prog"?

This is an interesting poll Robert Clap.
 
I voted blue.  With Phaedra, Ocean and particularly Tales From Topographic Oceans I simply had to.

I assigned points for each album (If I didn't know it i point ws awrded)

1.Black      35
2.Grey        29
3.White      28
4.Blue        27
5.Brown       21
6.Red         20
7.Yellow     19
8.Green       15
9.Vilet           14
10.Orange     9

So Black wins it...just.


Edit. But I'm overiding it and going for Grey...it has Relayer and Permanent Waves.

If he did, would this album go in black or all the colors? Confused

How can there be so few votes for green?  4/5 of the albums are completely brilliant and the best albums their respective bands put out.  The Missing Piece isn't that good but 4/5 great albums still makes it the best overall choice on the list. 
Though, I probably would have gone with pink had it been offered. 
so, green followed by black and yellow

That would be my temptation too, but I'm still thinking. BTW, it's funny to see that in the "Prog by Colours" poll I chose only non-colours. Smile

Went with "White" - some great albums there.  I would also add the Beatles White Album to the White listing - but maybe that is just proto-prog.  (BTW, I used to have the White Album on white vinyl, until it got accidentally cracked - what a shame...)

Minstrel is Gray? I thought it was brown...

White has The Wall and OK Computer, Purple has Ziltoid and He, but Black has Hazards of Love, Red and Godbluff, three albums of which I am quite fond. Dark Side sweetens the deal to some extent, and Moving Pictures is a necessary evil, but a tolerable one. Black it is. Just like...friggin' everyone else, crap.
