I don't think the cinema Show or One for the vine are considered Epics.


Epics are usually 15 min or more , and are separated in parts...

A special mention to a handful of future classic: ANGLAGARD's 'Höstesjid', DREAM THEATER's 'a Change of Seasons', CITIZEN CAIN's 'Somewhere but Yesterday', IQ's 'Harvest of Souls', and last but not least, ECHOLYN's 'Mei' and 'a Suite for the Everyman'.

Good taste! I changed my mind...I like you again!!

Karn Evil 9 - ELP

I don't really get Supper's Ready. Its alright, but certainly not one of my favorites... can somebody explain this to me?

Suppers Ready - Genesis

The fountain of Lamneth - Rush

Hemispheres - Rush

The revealing science of God (From Topographic oceans) - Yes

Dogs - Pink Floyd

Harvest of Souls - IQ (May not be considered as classic as it is so recent, but I have really fallen for this wonderfully constructed, and emotional epic. IQ have been brilliant in recent years)

 

Ultimately bored by endless ecstasy!

Shine On You Crazy Diamond (PF)

Echoes (PF)

Close to the Edge (Yes)

Natural Selection (Lands End) 

2112 (Rush)
