Well which epic track is your favourite?

I was going to call this poll side-long epics but SOYCD which clocks in at 26 minutes and tops and tails the WYWH album (it probably wouldn't have quite fitted onto a side of vinyl).

I love all of them, but while all can be favoured, can all of them be your favourite? I also will go "Echoes", although I would have gone with "Atom Heart Mother" at another time, and "Shine on You Crazy Diamond" at another earlier time.
Watching while most appreciating a sunset in the moment need not diminish all the glorious sunsets I have observed before. It can be much like that with music for me.

Echoes, just over the other two, but all are 5 star tracks.

Echoes stands out above the others by a fair margin in my music world.

That's my case as well, but I figured AHM would need help, so I voted for it (I was the first vote) and it turned out I was right.
let's just stay above the moral melee
prefer the sink to the gutter
keep our sand-castle virtues
content to be a doer
as well as a thinker,
prefer lifting our pen
rather than un-sheath our sword

As a PF addict I wouldn't give up to any of the listed tracks, but Echoes is their best, IMO.
I stand with Roger Waters, I stand with Joan Baez, I stand with Victor Jara, I stand with Woody Guthrie. Music is revolution

All of them are milestones in my life and musical appreciation. I voted Echoes.

Simply and beautifully expressed; it's the same for me.
