Duke is my fav album by the 3----

Although--Guitar Noir is a great underrated Hackett album.

Guitar Noir is my favourite Steve Hackett album, which sometimes gets passed over in favour of his better-known debut album.

The easiest of these polls for me so far, and one I have been anticipating. Songs From the Wood has been one of my favorite albums ever since I first got it on vinyl in the latter days of the 70s. Others that ring out for me include Guitar Noir (a clear second), Black Moon, and the criminally overlooked Take What You Need (not prog but still a great album with some of Trower's most creative solos).
The world of sound is certainly capable of infinite variety and, were our sense developed, of infinite extensions. -- George Santayana, "The Sense of Beauty"

I'm very fond of this album, being the first APP I ever heard, long time ago.

yes, but if you really want to be shocking then vote for Procol Harum's Prodigal Stranger. What a stinker.

I wouldn't call it a stinker though, but nothing special I guess.

No, I voted for the nostalgia of Steve Hackett's Guitar Noir, but I like APP's towering Gaudi album too. Smile

I'd heard Procol Harum's Prodigal Stranger was a great comeback album. I'm looking forward to listening to all of Procol Harum's albums, eventually. I'm on the letter "P" at the moment on my Prog Britannia YT Channel, but that's "P" for Pink Floyd, so I have to go through the entire alphabet again to reach Procol Harum, which includes  setting two weeks to one side to complete Rick Wakeman's humungous discography of albums. Smile

The album that's a true return to form was 2003's The Well's On Fire. Great songs in the old PH style and the production is better with Brooker and co. dumping the horrible 80's production and programmed drums that ruined The Prodical Stranger. The songs on TPS are not bad and a few would be exceptional if they were recut with better production values, but as Gary's voice is shot that will never happen.

I love the title track and video from Procol Harum's Long Goodbye (1995) album, featuring the dramatic closing scenes from the movie, Zabriskie Point.

For me it’s a tie between Songs from the Wood and Guitar Noir.
