Damn tough call between Taste and Culture, but I think I have to give it to Gentle Giant

All great albums but I'm giving it to Comus. Perfect album to woo (slightly) disturbed women outta Greenland with...or so I've heard.

All three albums I think great and have loved to bits, but "Boo", the creepiest album, over "Moo", the udder album, over "Eww", the album with the tasteless cover, although the music is tasty to me. I know many who would say that the Comus is the creepy one, the tasteless "eww" one, and the udder one as in being udderly [sic] disgusting, to which I would say "FU! That's only partially true".

Them Greenland women must be something else! I guess if it's a choice between a man with a Comus album and dating a walrus

On topic, I love all three of these. But I pick the HC, every time I listen to that record I'm struck by the thought that it sounds fresher and more modern than most of what is being done in the 21st century.

a couple of years ago this wouldn't have been close... a lightyears kind of thing man...
today? I've definitely got much harder and heavier into the wackier sides of prog  .. but.. still not close... but not a blowout either. Perhaps in another couple of years it might be GG over HC... that GG is damn near perfect... |
