Tough call between Wilson and B&B.

Going the latter this time.

Tuff call some high quality albums in the poll. But I have to go with...



The Tangent      Not As Good As The Book [/B
   
Friedrich Nietzsche: "Without music, life would be a mistake."



Music Is Live

Two people are better off than one, for they can help each other succeed.



Keep Calm And Listen To The Music…

This is the toughest one yet - by far! There’s definitely several there fairly equal in my affections. I’ve given it to Opeth, but that’s really not particularly fair as that album doesn’t stand out any more than the other of my favourites from this list. Just a snap decision, or I might never make a decision at all! 😄🤪

Some good ones here! I'm a bit under the spell of the gutsy "change in direction" Pendragon orchestrated with Pure, so I'm giving it my vote.

Oh wow! Didn't expect 'Pure' to be in the lead just after 12 hours. Especially when we have Opeth, Wilson, Beardfish and Cynic.

Bit out of character for me to be the first Steve Wilson voter.
