	"Close To The Edge", although "Low Spark Of High Heeled Boys" by Traffic is up on my list. Edited by Grimm

	Close To The Edge... it's the best prog composition(cant call it a song) by far. And You And I would be my number two, then Supper's Ready, then Starless.

	A difficult choice between Supper's Ready and Close To The Edge, but at the and decided to gove my vote to Yes (Supper's ready has some relatively weak moments close to the end).

	For me it would be Tarkus. The whole song flows greatly together. I think That Supper's Ready and Close to the Edge each have their weaker moments but Tarkus flows nicely the whole way. I must admit I like the pompous keyboards parts. Close to the Edge would be my second choice and Echoes third. Where is Thick as a Brick on this list?

	I vote for "Wassilissa" of Mother Gong's "Fairy Tales" album, a 23 minute epic telling the tale of a young girl changed into an old woman and back to young girl again by the witch Baba Yaga. Gilly Smythe tells the tale wonderfully, and the band supports exactly the right music to it. The best part is the sax solo of Didier Malherbe in the episode "Flying". Something our kids love to listen to too, if only for the fairy tale told there. The two other fairy tales ("The Three Tongues" and "The Pied Piper of Hamlin") are great also. Edited by BaldJean

	Of King Crimson I would have listed "Lizard". And where is "A Plague of Lighthouse Keepers"?
