Hi everyone!

Notes: each mentioned album is shorter than 36 minutes. I wanted to avoid lanslide victories of well-known albums like CTTE or Red or Hemispheres.

         Proto-prog and prog related were not taken in consideration.

        The list is not meant to be complete, it was long enough for me to type the titles in.

       Max. 2 albums / band is enough, and it allows to add more bands.

PFM - Per Un Amico Great album but a close second is Gentle Giant - Octopus!

Godbluff and Per un Amico are my favorites here...

Goblin - Profondo Rosso is a short masterpiece

Too hard, can't decide.

I vote "Other" : the following:

PFM:Per Un Amico

PFM:Storia Di Un minuto

Gentle Giant:Three Friends

VDGG:Godbluff

Quella Vecchia Locanda-debut

Q.V.L.:Il Tempo Della Gioia

Le Orme :Felona e Sorona

Nektar:A Tab in the Ocean

Nektar:Remember the Future

Now, that is a more fair choice...

(Actually, despite the legend to the contrary, ol' Nappy was supposedly of slightly above average height for a French man of his time.)Geek

 

 

Plankton may be very short, but he's VERY dangerous!Stern Smile

Okay then: PFM - Per Un Amico and Nektar - Remember the FutureSmile

Not a bad album among 'em, but my favourite from that lot is Popol Vuh's Letze Tage Letze Nachte.

I Think I'll go with Felona e Sorona.

But there are too many great choices, very tough.

Heady list. John Barleycorn for me please.

Godbluff.
One likes to believe
In the freedom of music
But glittering prizes
And endless Compromises
Shatter the illusion
Of integrity

GG octopus, I also like Three friends, the PFM albums, le Orme and Traffic.
Tab in the ocaen from Nektar is ok but  i find their other album slightly annoying.
Don't know the rest really.
