^^ I only like the first 4 parts of Incantations... Smile 

I always thought the title track to Yes: Open Your Eyes was a fairly groovy little number in its own way... however, the other 10 tracks let the album down somewhat.
Music has always been a matter of energy to me. On some nights I believe that a car with the needle on empty can run 50 more miles if you have the right music very loud on the radio. Hunter S Thompson

The Division Bell, High Hopes. Beautiful song, the rest is just generic blues-jazz with an awkward touch of new age.

If that's right, sorry. I searched for similar topics but couldn't find any.

Pink Floyd - The Wall

Comfortable Numb is fantastic but the rest of the songs are either too short, annoying or just plain bad.

Third by Soft Machine never did anything for me, but the only vocal song Moon in June really stands out from the rest in a positive sense IMO. B)

Well, the first song that comes to my mind now is from the ELPowell's selftitled. The whole album seems terrible to me. Something really lousy, with very low-quality songs and dreadful keyboards (Works Vol. 1 left Emerson with serious sequels), but "Mars, The Bringer of War" is incredible. Anyway, it's a composition by Holst, but the arrangement is brilliant.
