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.

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...

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.

In the freedom of music
But glittering prizes
And endless Compromises

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.

I voted OTHERS.

I think STATE O' MIND: "STATE O' MIND" (1999 Demo CD, genre: Power Prog Metal) is a very Masterpiece of short released.

 

For always yours, Mandrakeroot.
