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 ![](smileys/smiley2.gif) )

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 Clap](https://www.progarchives.com/forum/smileys/smiley32.gif) Good call, Dean.
