I don't know them all, but I consider Illusions on a Double Dimple a masterpiece of German progressive rock.

i feel that Illusions On A Double Dimple is not only the band's best, but the best progressive album of all time

Double dimple.

I think the lyrics from Sparticus are too simplistic.

One of my favourite bands,all  their releases until Pompeii are good, but some are superb
 
  1. Illusions on a Double Dimple (MASTERPIECE)
  2. Spartacus (ALSO MASTERPÏECE)
  3. Old Love Dies Hard (Underrated)
  4. Mediterranean Tales
  5. Pompeii

The rest are not in the level.

Illusions On A Double Dimple simply changed my way of looking at music; I was just stunned when I first listened to it, and until today it remains to me as one of the best progressive albums, a true masterpiece, and surely Triumvirat's best (Spartacus being a close follower).

Illusions are just winning this poll. Perhaps that is a fitting result. Not many fans though sadly. Poll closed.
