Support Your local transport !

Camel - Moonmadness

But honestly a bit of a tactical vote

, i guess KC is the better album, and J&V's the more interesting realease, when in the mood for some electronics

The choices by Rush, KC, J+V and Kraftwerk are all worth a mention but the best of these is easily Rubicon. A wonderfully emotive album and a great representation of mid 70s Tangerine Dream at their best.

Strawbs needed a vote......

I never post anything anywhere without doing more than basic research, often in depth.

No wonder they were always unpopular!

I voted for Heavy Weather because it's the grooviest.

Ok but we're going to have to exile you to teen town...

Bring it on!

I'm a teen, and I could listen to Pastorius slap his bass allllllllllll day.

I voted Short Stories.
Great, original album, even if it would not get the prog tag.

Interesting Poll.

1. Camel - Moonmadness

2. Jon and Vangelis - Short Stories

3. Renaissance - A Song for all Seasons

4. Weather Report - Heavy Weather

5. Tangerine Dream - Rubycon
