In polls like these where it's pretty much impossible to pick just one i usually give a vote to one of my favourites that doesn't have one yet. The problem is that Amon Duul II, Ash Ra Tempel and Embryo all have no votes.Shocked
Guess i'll go with Amon Duul II this time.

Is "Aera" in the poll supposed to be "Area", by any chance? I like them a lot too.

I commonly do the same, and/or give it to one whose album I have listened to the most recently.  Late last night I was listening to Popul Vuh's Seligpreisung, so will give Popul Vuh a  vote.

No, it is meant to be "Aera". Here a great live track from them:

Oh, Can by far. One of those bands that has just corrupted and stained my mindset on how music can be made. Brilliant band.
