Yeah, BG is really underrated these days and one of their best post 1980 albums imo. Then again part of it for me could be sentimental reasons because I went to a Yes convention in 1987 just before it was released and saw them twice on this tour which was the first time I ever saw them live.

Not sure if those count. Maybe not. Relayer is usually at least number four behind the Bruford/Howe albums though (not counting ABWH of course Tongue). 

For KC my favorite is LTIA but that usually squeezes in at number 3 behind Court and Red. 






My no. 2 fav Genesis album, for a long time it was my no. 1

What's your number one now? For a long time my number one was SEBTP but now it's either 2 or 3 (depending on where I want to put in W&W).

The answers would probably change tomorrow, but my top three prog albums that are not in the top 3 here are:

Discipline - Unfolded Like Staircase (what a name for an album!)
Marillion - Marbles
Tool - Lateralus
...Histoires Sans Paroles...

Not sure if those count. Maybe not. Relayer is usually at least number four behind the Bruford/Howe albums though (not counting ABWH of course Tongue). 

For KC my favorite is LTIA but that usually squeezes in at number 3 behind Court and Red.

I've got some odd responses in the past about this, maybe others are in the same boat.
Fav albums that aren't in the usual top three picked by fans. I've only got a few though

Jethro Tull - Songs from the Wood
Genesis - W & W
Dream Theater - Dream & Day
