Nice.

^ No worries, was not meant to point out error, I was just unclear on it. Easy to miss things in these long lists especially as I combined it with Zaar to have more entries. And some are still used to just voting for one entry when it comes to multiple vote series.

Heck, I genuinely totally forgot about Yes for Y. I mean it did not even occur to me as I made the list. Even if I didn't include it, for it not to come to mind is odd (I have Holes in my head bigger than Mercury Rev, just to reference a song I love). I think I would have included Yes as I have been growing to appreciate Yes more again in recent years (I was big on early Yes as a teenager, up to Fragile). And while I have spoken against Close to the Edge as only really liking the title track, I have forgotten to mention that I do like "And You And I" a lot too. "Siberian Khatru" is **** however. ;) Fill in asterisks as desired. I still think as a three track album that it is overrated (that dreaded word) in comparison to the more sophisticated Bubu - Anabelas. Courses for horses. Fragile is great though. :)

I'll not vote for Zappa as I find enough with few votes here that I can support: Yugen, Zamla Mammaz Manna, John Zorn. Zopp could have a vote as well but that's a double bill so they'd only get half of my vote, and half of Zopp can't compete with the others. Very strangely, I realise, being a massive Art Zoyd fan, I have never heard a Zaboitzeff solo album in full, just a few videos. Not even because I didn't like what I heard, just... it has never happened.  

Frank Zappa for sure.
