ELP - Brain Salad Surgery
 
No, I know how to behave in the restaurant now, I don't tear at the meat with my hands. If I've become a man of the world somehow, that's not necessarily to say I'm a worldly man.

Drama gets the nod.

I can't vote for any of these. 
None of them survived The Great Album Purge a few years ago when I moved to a smaller house.

I can rule out ELP, Genesis and King Crimson, so it's all A Question of Balance which album I'm going to choose out of the three remaining. Smile

Lark's Tongues is number 1, but Drama isn't too far behind that.  Everything else on the list is not on my favorite album list.  Brain Salad falls to a distant 3rd (Not a fan of the overly-long Karn Evil) and the rest don't even register.

 The Genesis albums seem out of place compared to the others ( 80's Genesis compared to classic era 70's prog)  & you have some very strong albums ( BSS & LTIA) up against some albums that are not are highly regarded (The Final Cut )  I'm just not sure how they tie together?

Someone has solved it already - but on this thread I have used 3rd place for each band.  The solo thread and the 'less big ones' I am about to post are variations on the same theme.
