Recently I've seriously gotten into "Octopus" and I've finally given it a 5-star rating, but "Pawn Hearts" is just too perfect. Heard it a few dozen times now, and it's one of those records that gets better each time you hear it. Almost a no-brainer, but both are masterpieces that definitely deserve to be in the final. I'll be happy with whoever wins Smile

This should be H To HE vs Acquiring, but it's not. Between these two it's easily Hawn Pearts.

easy vote here..

in the previous 6 rounds.. 1 vote for Pawn Hearts... 0 for Octopus.

So since I am such a fair person.. and am a fan of neither.. evening out the vote.. and voting for the FAR superior album

The Big O for the Big Mick!

Very hard but I like to vote. OCTOPUS is my choice. IMO This is "The Best album" of G.G.

if only we could... two very uninspiring choices here.

I should done a last minute substitution for Pawn Hearts. LOL  Now that would have been a great final LOL  A pseudo greatest prog album v. most popular prog album poll for the overall title.

VdGG. Sorry Micky, I didn't like "H to He" either although it was more tolerable than "Pawn Hearts".

I think Pawn Hearts is a tad more consistently rewarding.

Same for me. Hamill is an appalling vocalist, which is a pity, because Hugh Banton is an excellent keyboardist.
