I don't think the cinema Show or One for the vine are considered Epics.
Epics are usually 15 min or more , and are separated in parts...

Ooh.. can I second Hamburger Concerto? So long since I've heard that... I think I might have to go and refresh my memory.

Hi, gdub411... it seems like I've skipped some big ones, such as FOCUS's 'Eruption', YES's 'The Gates of Delirium', CARAVAN's 'For Richard', SOFT MACHINE's 'Out-Bloody-Rageous', and ELP's 'Tarkus'
They are among my absolute epics in prog history.

Change of Season by DT
Snow Goose by Camel
Generation 13 by Saga

Whatever the mood... If I want truly epic I turn to my classical collection.

Dunno if it's a favourite but Transatlantic's 'Stranger In Your Soul' is about as epic as it gets...

Good choice! I also liked 'No quater' from 'Houses of the holy' The version on 'The song remains the same' is superb.

Keep your fingers out of my eye. While I write I like to glance at the butterflies in glass that are all around the walls.........
The epic tale of Rael and John.
Lamb is the one for me.
