Okay I describe an album, somebody tries to "discover" what album it is. If he's right, it's his turn!
Let's start (with a REALLY easy one).
Brittish. Green. 3 tracks.

I believe it is Close to the Edge?
Which are the rules? Should I describe the cover art? or anything related to the album?

Yeah!  Your turn.
You have to decribe another album and people must find what album it is!

Hint: A "kind" of watch is on the cover but it's like a watch with no numbers, only a picture
