3 or more albums actually, but space issues with the topic title and it's too late for me to think of better phrasing.

Part 2 of "Bands [with] 3 or more [studio] albums in the sub-genre top-10s". Here is a link to the first posted topic with poll: CLICK HERE for first poll

I decided to through Prog Archives top ten charts looking at each Prog sub-genre (category) to see how many categories have three of more studio albums by the same band in the top 10 of its sub-genre's chart, and I made a list that came to 24 bands with over 80 albums in total that fit the criteria.

I have included the ranking (the number to the left of the band-name and album) for the genre charts in the master list below. Note: Since I have taken this off the charts and this site does not tag individual albums, we will find an album like Kind of Blue, or specifically Kind of Blue in the master-list, which is not JRF but still fits per my methodology. Some others I would categorise differently. I just ask that people vote for a favourite album no matter how well they think it represents the category.

Here is the master-list:

Canterbury Scene:

(1) Caravan - In the Land of Grey and Pink (1971)

(10) Magma - 1001° Centigrades [Aka: 2] (1971)

Please vote for a favoured album even if more than one stand out.

This grouping is not nearly as strong for me as the first poll list on the whole, but that is a reflection, perhaps, of my possibly too parochial palette.    That said, I like Jethro Tull, and I really like Miles Davis -- not the pre JRF Kind of Blue so much to be honest although I do like a considerable number of of his pre-"electric Miles" period albums.... Of his 70s works, I love Big Fun and Get Up With It. I'm giving In a Silent Way a vote over Bitches Brew.

This poll is harder than the first poll. There are a few standouts to choose from, but I will go with Thick as a Brick.
 

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.

The best stuff here is TAAB, Aqualung, Bitches Brew, In Absentia, Deadwing. Once more hard to rank them. Aqualung sits at zero votes, so it gets mine.

For some reason, maybe the mood I'm in right now, I'm inclined to listen to Marillion's Script ahead of all the others. Voted accordingly.
