Wurdah and 1001 smash tago out of the water. Cans vocalist is quite poor
All I like is prog related bands beginning late 60's/early 70's. Their music from 1968 - 83 has the composition and sound which will never be beaten. Perfect blend of jazz, classical, folk and rock.

Magma, but not voting for Can is not easy

I don't think Magma ever topped Tago Mago, but Can's career wasn't anywhere near as consistent as Magma's... no vote

It's closer than Yes vs Genesis. Seems I chose a good pair. Cool

Magma for me, although Tago Mago is my favorite thing either of them have made.

Right now Can, but to be honest I haven't heard a full Magma album yet so I can't really vote.

Magma pretty easily. Can's compositions sound a bit amateur in the early albums imo

Can.

I'm not very familiar with Magma, so perhaps I should've abstained as well. Oh, what the heck!
