Favourite Dream Theater Epic?

If I I had to start with just 3 Dream Theater albums to get an understanding of what the band is capable of I'd chose I
IMAGES AND WORDS, SCENES OF A MEMORY(Metropolispt2) and TRAIN OF THOUGHT. I feel with those 3 albums you get a pretty diverse sound from the band, although the album AWAKE is my favourite and a real gem at that I would not listed because it carries a similar sound I&W's. GET THOSE 3!!!!

^What about the remaster?

When Dream and Day Unite?        Or do you mean the Majesty Demos? At least get When Dream and Day Reunite with James on vocals. Awesome show.

do it!!!!

sorry for the typing - the beer is starting to soak in....Rush - Brilliant - 1975-1980 - then like Genesis - they produce sub standard sh*te.....IMHO...

I don't exactly remember when it was, but I'll get back to you and see if I have it among my hundreds of DT boots.
