Again, a gorgeous album pitted against a more challenging and imo interesting one. In the spirit of prog, going with the latter. Polite Force. Oh, and also because I am a diehard Canterbury nut.

Another close one for me, but I have to go with Hackett's solo debut. It's just a bit more interesting, IMO.

Again, not that I think that Voyage of the Acolyte is such a masterpiece, I guess it is a bit overrated, but I going with Steve Hackett.

Polite Force all the way... though I wouldn't be unhappy.. and even looking forward to a potential match with the Squire album if (as expected) the Hatchet album moves on.

I did enjoy that part of this stage of the process. Picking samples was fun... however going through all the reviews of these albums.. you really saw some great reviews that otherwise might have been lost in the shuffle. I really liked your review. I'm likely going to shift to this for the 3rd round of the moderns.. not sure what I'm going to do with the 3rd round of the classics. Stick with reviews, go back to samples.. or perhaps something different. |

I never post anything anywhere without doing more than basic research, often in depth.

In my opinion it's a tie ... I vote for Polite Force because it deserves more votes.
