I voted for 'Supper's Ready' but my real favourite is Zappa's 'Waka Jawaka'. A huge brass sound, with a great moog solo from Don Preston and an awesome guitar part from FZ. Magnificent. The 'new' 5.1 mix on QuAUDIOPHILIAc is awesome.

Most TD music is overlooked by most folks....Pergamon (Quixotte) could easily be listed !

That's the price to pay for having excellent taste.

Supper's Ready is kind of in its own league, even better than 'Echoes'!!!
Marmalade...I like marmalade.

SUPPERS READY!

Followed by, from that selection..

Tarkus
Starless
Gates of Delerium

Although Dogs by Pink Floyd is better than those three IMO..
Ultimately bored by endless ecstasy!

Starless by KC. Supper's Ready is really close for second.

My top ten favorite epic pieces are as follows:

 

1. The Gates Of Delirium (Yes)

2. Supper's Ready (Genesis)

3. Cyguns X-1 : Books 1 & 2 (The Voyage and Hemispheres, respectively) (Even though they are on two separate albums, I see them both as a continuous piece of music)

4. Song For America (Kansas)

5. Tarkus (ELP)

6. Close To The Edge (Yes)

7. Mind Drive (Yes)

8. 2112 (Rush)

9. A Plague Of Lighthouse Keepers (Van Der Graaf Generator)

10. The Musical Box (Genesis)

Fracture > Starless for me, but not by much. As for the mother of all long tracks, that goes to Shine On You Crazy Diamond Parts 1-9. Supper's Ready is still up there, though.

Until a week or two ago, it would have been a close call between "Supper's Ready" and "Grendel" (if only because it's hard to tell them apart...).

Since I reviewed "Meddle", I realised just how fantastic "Echoes" really is - for me, it transcends "Supper's Ready" in exceptionally subtle ways.
