Poseidon's Creation is my overall favourite Eloy track.

And I didn't vote any differently.

I love the whole album. But I also voted for "Poseidon's Creation."

Most of it is included on Eloy Live. Worth checking that out as it packs a bit more punch especially Poseidon's Creation (Rosenthal is king). I voted for the last option as far as the album goes but overall it's all good.

The last track always gets me, if not for the title alone. Otherwise, track 1.

I loved the whole album to pieces when I was younger but Poseidon's Creation is the one that stood the test of time.

I had this album a long time ago. I'll have to get it again actually. What I remember is that the opening track(the one with what sounded like a god talking)seemed to be by far the best on the album. I think most people judge the album on that track alone(which to me is kind of like judging Foxtrot just on Supper's Ready). The rest of the album was maybe ok but seemed to pale in comparison to the first track.

I am personally a Decay of Logos fan. Just love that bass line half way through the song.

Bringing it back! I love this album. I might have to throw it on today because of this thread.

I guess, while it might not be my favourite Eloy track, "Poseidon's Creation" is arguably their greatest song.  From beginning to end it has that certain something that classics have.  So it's no wonder that it has the vast majority of votes here.

Hi,

I was hoping that you would have the "no tracks" options in the voting. 

I don't listen to "tracks". I listen to the album and the band's music! Big smile
