Hurray! I'm the first who voted for FEELS GOOD TO ME, on Wednesday August 19, at 10.33 a.m. British time! (And I'm NOT ashamed, even though Bill himself prefers ONE OF A KIND.)

Yes, you really should! I mean, I just llllllllove SIX WIVES, and much of WHITE ROCK, and parts of THE STORY OF I and KING ARTHUR and CRIMINAL RECORD and FISH OUTA WATER and even BEGINNINGS... but they all get B-L-O-W-N A-W-A-Y by BB's solo stuff. And while you're at it, check out BB's Earthworks as well. (Just go for the albums with the highest ratings on ProgArchives )

Bruford's One of a Kind!  His Bruford project is wonderful, as is his output with Earthworks.  Definitely worth looking into!!!

I voted for Six Wives....
 
I was expecting this one to have a better showing!
 
I like a lot of the others as well....but this was pretty clear cut for me.
Prog On!

I can't vote against Journey to the Centre of the Earth, but Steve Howe's Natural Timbre is pushing Olias for second place.

Wakeman' Six Wives. Followed by Olias and then Criminal Record *wondering why it's not here; I find it better than The Myths and Journey.*

I'll go for The Six Wives of Henry VIII, but Fish Out of Water and The Steve Howe Album are also my favorite albums.

1. Jon Anderson - Olias of Sunhillow
2. Rick Wakeman - Six Wives of King Henry VIII
3. Steve Howe - The Steve Howe Album
4. Chris Squire - Fish Out of Water
 
I will also agree with Dean about Alan White's Ramshackled.  Not a great album, but it contains a lot of good drumming and has a lot of soul and diversity of rhythms, and is worth looking into. Clap Good call, Dean.
The world of sound is certainly capable of infinite variety and, were our sense developed, of infinite extensions. -- George Santayana, "The Sense of Beauty"
