The top couple from this poll will be matched up with the winners of the first poll. I am not voting but would go with IMAGINOS and FIRE OF UNKNOWN ORIGIN. The stinker here is CLUB NINJA(too 80's and synthy) with HEAVEN FORBID(too few good songs, lots of filler) a close second, in my opinion only, of course.

Imaginos just ahead of Fire.

Toss up for me between Fire and Curse of the Hidden Mirror......they both have some very nice tracks on them.

Revolution has a lot of filler too. Shooting Shark and Shadow of California are great songs, Dragon Lady is ok, but then you've got stuff like Light Years of Love, and the abominable Let Go ("B-O-C, you can be whatever you wanna be) .
Club Ninja is my least favorite of these, with Revolution coming in a close second. I thought "side 1" of Heaven was actually great, but by side two I was really starting to miss the Bouchards.

Went with Fire. As for Revolution, "Take me Away" had a nice riff to it, but "Eyes On Fire" killed it for me...what an awful song. "Let Go" is at least hilarious, even if it is total pants.
