4 very good albums and 2 dogs.
I think Voyage just edges out GG, Eloy and Echolyn.

Acquiring the Taste for me, which is my traditional favourite Gentle Giant album (well, it and Three Friends).
I enjoy K.A too, but it's a lesser Magma album to me. I find it a bit Prog-by-numbers, and don't like the keyboards work which has dull one-handed runs in it. If they had gone more acoustic, classical and jazz and less rock, then I would have enjoyed it more. I would say it may be the most "mainstream Prog" album that Magma ever put out, and is an album that I would think could appeal to those Proggers who are not into the so-called avant-garde music scene, or experimental music, which is one reason why it did so well with the ratings. That said, if Hercules considers it to be one of the dogs of the list, I may not be as right as I thought.

Voyage of the Acolyte is my favorite, but I voted De-loused in Comatorium because it only has one vote. It's my favorite album by The Mars Volta, followed by The Bedlam in Goliath.

De-Loused is a modern masterpiece, never bettered by the band, in my opinion.

Hackett > Gentle Giant > Eloy

Two random guys agreed to shake hands. Just Because. They felt like it, you know. It was an agreement of sorts...a random agreement.
