Echoes. Love the Minstrel in the Gallery album on the whole, the Baker Street Muse included, but that particular track just doesn't have the same magic as Echoes.

again... Echoes easily...  good song to get stoned to..and/or act like rabbits with a member of the fairer sex...

so it gets my vote over a rather mediocre Dull tune.

Echoes it is and you want to make a bet on the 80%?


I decided to look up other songs on youtube called Echoes, and was surprised when I clicked on one by a band called the Rapture, that the Rapture's Echoes was used as the theme song of one of my favourite modern shows, Misfits.

Last night it was very close to 80% pro Echoes, but Baker St. Muse has gained some ground percentage-wise.

Anyway, Pink Floyd's "Echoes" gets my vote

I would actually be surprised if echoes did not top BSM by a margin of two to one.

Baker Street Muse. I love Echoes, but it gets a little long (and boring) in the middle. BSM keeps me entertained all way through.

I'll give Echoes the edge finally - over a good Tull song, but not one of the classics. I think it's found it's level now. Hopefully we won't need to vote on Echoes v Nutrocker now.

I'll take BSM. All Floyd has really just fallen off the radar for me.

Love them both, but Tull has the edge for this poll.

Baker St. Muse, although it is a song cycle and not a long trippy jam like Echoes.
