Walpurgis but Autumn is quite fine as well.
let's just stay above the moral melee
prefer the sink to the gutter
keep our sand-castle virtues
content to be a doer
as well as a thinker,
prefer lifting our pen
rather than un-sheath our sword

All are geat, but Repent Walpurgis is the history.
Uh, if interested: I chanced to meet Fisher in the backstage of a Procol's gig in Italy, not so many years ago, and to shake his hand!

Pilgrim's Progress is my pick. Beautiful melody, majestic organ symphonies, together with an honest, melancholic and yearning voice, all come together to make it a unique self-reflective, existentialist piece...almost as good as a Whiter Shade of Pale. Next would be Wreck of the Hesperus. Did not Fisher also sing on Boredom (from a Salty Dog)? Would have been great if he had remained with Procol longer.

Yup
 
Although Outside The Gates of Cerdes is even better.
