I was just clarifying, no need to feel bad about how it went. And feel free to disagree. It just bred some confusion due to the way you prepared the topic. For my part, I tend to think of these polls as primarily an accessory to discussion, discovery, sharing ideas, and debating to some extent. I know that my intent has very often been misunderstood when I've made topics or posts even when I've gone to great pains to go into great details, try to present a coherent mission statement or argument, and try to cover all the bases. Such topics might take an hour or more to think about and write, but still people might not get my intent and I would go down the seems to require further clarification, and more, and more route. It can be frustrating, but 10,000 words later every one is tired and moves on. Hopefully we do learn from each other, and our perspective might shift as we debate/discuss. The most important to me is that we all try to actively listen to and understand where the other is coming from. It's no fun if conversation is at cross-purposes, but it can take some work and compromise to get on the same page.

The most boring of topics often are the least controversial. And you won't find me deciding if Rush is better than Jethro Tull. I prefer Tull, but am not really a fan of either and I'm tired of the "better" type topics. I'd rather do a deep dive into Canterbury Scene music (maybe I'll learn about some Canterbury Sound bands that I haven't heard of) than talk about either of those acts. For some they're not really after conversation and like making or participating in polls for other reasons. Perhaps I'll bump one of my Canterbury Scene polls. Criticice my choices and approach if you think it irrational or demonstrates ignorance (constructively, please). Sometimes it will; hopefully I learn how better to do it next time. EDIT: I bumped my poll topic, and I do hope you take the time to participate even if you question my choices or approach (I often make mistakes other than my usual typos). I did that as part of a series and also went outside of the Canterbury Scene box across my polls to include a wider variety of music and more acts.

It is a very cozy album. Great sound. Easy album to get lost in.

Absolutely! Way underrated too. Magic sound with all that Fender Rhodes loveliness. A showcase at the very least.
