A Plague of Lighthouse Keepers Supper's ReadyClose to the Edge There are some other great epics on this list but honestly these three still stand head and shoulders above the rest for me.

^I guess Moonchild would have lost its first vote. But yes Echoes would have gotten my vote over most anything.

Voted for almost all epics ( La crème de la crème)
except : King Crimson - Moonchild (12:11) Rush - The Camera Eye (10:57) Rush - Cygnus X-1 Book II Hemispheres (18:04) Jethro Tull - My God (7:10) Voted for Zappa's Gumbo because he does not deserve a zero score

Amos Goldberg (professor of Genocide Studies at the Hebrew University in Jerusalem): Yes, it's genocide. It's so difficult and painful to admit it, but we can no longer avoid this conclusion.

This is pretty much the impossible choice! But today I am going for 'A Plague of Lighthouse Keepers'!

I put in my 5 votes, then realized I missed STARLESS (what was I thinking!)  Anyway, I'll just keep what I went with: 1. Gates of Delerium (the best prog piece ever made) 2. Supper's Ready (the 2nd best prog piece ever made) 3. Hemispheres (probably the most "symphonic" Rush ever got) 4. Il Banchetto (My fave Italian prog piece on my fave Italian prog album--some interesting subtleties) 5. Sleepwalkers (Maintains VDGG depth/darkness, but still rocks) |
