Man I wanna see the top results

The list looks pretty good so far. I'm a bit confused by Quadrophenia and Tommy being so low on votes, and I think that Train of Thought and Octivarium should swap places, but aside from that, I'm liking what I see. I'm guessing #1 is Wish You Were Here, Thick as a Brick, or one of the main Genesis albums, but I could be wrong...

Some surprises here, but interesting list. Cant wait to see where Choirs of the Eye and The Perfect Element come in.

news update: not everyone likes classic rock ;P

Great results. Really interesting stuff. Let's have the rest!!

a lot of mine have shown up in the lower end, itll be interesting to see where the rest fall

It's alright kenmar, I dont think anyone's list was perfect.
My internet connection has been terrible so I'm finally able to post these results. Glad to see everyone's excitement.

For 100-1 I'll be including things such as album pictures and pieces of reviews from people who voted for the albums wherever I can to help people discover new music.

also, Kenmar, way to do your research

Originally posted by keiser willhelm Oh how my list has changed. i realized so many other bands that i wish i would have added. we should do this every year (maybe you'll get some assistance) or at least on some sort of regular interval. oh and VAST - visual audio sensory theater .. on the honorable mentions list!!! wooo!! what a great CD. besides that, many of my votes have already been listed. . . your giving people  heart attack. LIST MORE!!! oh and i guess this is for you... Great work this must have taken forever.

I think doing this yearly is a good idea/one taken directly from the forum that I took the idea from so yeah that'll probably happen. My lack of internet connection has been keeping me from posting but I'm doing my best.

   One of the interesting things to me about this list is the juxtapostion (sp?) of classic albums that I have been listening to for 20+ years with recent albums. Case in point with two albums I personally know very well are Blackfield 2 and Minstrel in the Gallery.  Blackfield 2 is something I been listening to a lot recently and I love it, loads of beautiful mellotron, great lyrics and SW's melodies but seriously higher than Minstrel in the Gallery at 305 vs. 354.  I saw Tull in 1978 and when they played the song Minstrel in the Gallery it was nuts, just crazy explosive energy. Plus Baker St. Muse and other great songs.  Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying new prog isn't deserving of high scores, it's just weird to see those albums rated higher than what I consider classic music from my teenage years.   Kenmar
