The Night watch is so beautiful, it had to be my choice.
Exiles and Starless are close behind

For me, it's got the be a live version of Starless... it just sounds like the main melody was made to be played by a violin. |

Yes. You know, I listened to the album as a whole again last night, and enjoyed every single minute of it, particularly Providence. When I reviewed the album a few years back, I was way too harsh on that track. |

Not a great fan of the Wetton voice, but I do like it on Book of Saturdays. When it comes to his bass playing there are too many brilliant performances to choose from, but I pretty much only listen to live recordings of KC so won't pick a particular studio cut.

I'm torn between Starless and Book of Saturday. Starless is the classic, with all of it's wonderful chord changes, but I think Book of Saturday is more vocal-centric. It's a wonderful vocal piece, with interesting lyrics, and not over-shadowed by the band. Kind of like PF's Wish You Were Here. I voted for Book of Saturday.
