God there are so many! NA five of them I would pick as my favs but Im gonna have to go for Octavarium because like 2112, divine wings of tragedy, wish you were here and change of seasons is musically awsome but also the clever lyrics in the middle of the track when two verses are built up from song titles.

2112 
In close proximity are Close to the Edge, Cygnus X-1, and A Change of Seasons.

You do mean both Cygnus X-1 Part I (end of AFTK) and Part II (beginning of Hemispheres), right?

Close to the Edge and Karn Evil 9. BTW, by "Wish You Were Here" you perhaps meant "Shine On You Crazy Diamond", which is another of my favourites.

I voted for "A Change Of Seasons" but could Fates Warning's "A Pleasant Shade Of Grey" qualify as a suite?

Pink Floyd's "Echose" or "Shine on...", or VDGG's "Plauge of lighthouse keepers", or Camels "Lady Fantasy" or ... (many others I can't think of right now) or Yes' "GoD" or "CTTE". So of what you've listed it would be CTTE, but I voted for other, becouse there are many others I like so much. And, besides, when it comes to suites I really can't choose just one!

Suppers Ready from the list, followed by CTTE..

Plauge of Lighthouse keepers should be on the list, as should Tarkus (ELP) and Song of Scheherazade by Reniassance..

Ultimately bored by endless ecstasy!
