I'm still needing a little time to let these two sink in a little.

Released date are often when it it impacted you but recorded dates are when it really happened...

I liked the Steve Hackett album better, but I'm kind of a fanboy

I think this poll will run about 50-50. Perhaps Grace should recuse itself as it has both Steves on it.

Eh, I'm a fanboy of both. I got the deluxe Wilson and the double deluxe of Hackett with an autograph and a t-shirt. They took forever to arrive in the mail. I was like a kid at Christmas.

I love Hackett, but Grace for Drowning is brilliant.

Both are great albums, but the slight edge goes to Grace for Drowning for me

A GREAT YEAR FOR PROG!!!

They're both great, but Grace for Drowning is just on an otherworldly level.

I like both very much, but Hackett definitely needs more support

I give the edge to Steve for having more range in the music than Steven. I'd also note that neither album is particularly groundbreaking. Lots of themes each has covered before. I ripped and combined each album with the bonus materials into two sprawling monster albums. Take that you short attention spanners and proclaimers of fillerses.

This is exactly how I feel. Both very, very good albums, but not groundbreaking material, or anything that would make them a real classic or masterpiece
