Definitely Phallus Dei for me. It has a sort of an inexplicable magic to me that no other album repeats. Yeti is another favorite.

Impossible poll. I could go with either Phallus, Yeti or Thanz.

Whoa, looking at these 5 INCREDIBLE albums - what a very very very difficult choice to make.......
It's a toss up between, well, all 5. Sorry Phallus Yeti Babylon City, but Tanz it must be......

a tough one. I will go with "Tanz der Lemminge" this time, but "Wolf City", Phallus Dei" and "Yeti" are great as well

Wolf City has always been my #1 Düül, with Phallus Dei a close second. Dig Yeti and Tanz too, but Carnival in Babylon has always seemed like a clunker to me.

Same here. Carnival is quite charming actually; it'd probably get more love if it wasn't surrounded by all these other monster albums (but then who'd have discovered it?).

I love all of these records, big time! I wouldn't want to chose between Yeti, Tanz and Wolf City though - all of which I consider masterpieces. 
The telepathic ways of Yeti versus the schizophrenic genius of Tanz or maybe just go for the stellar songwriting (and incorporation of the two formerly mentioned trades) of Wolf City? Nahh I literally have no idea which one to vote forWacko
I consider that a good thing.

Not surprised CIB has no votes. Good album but the weakest of the five.

Hi,

"Wolf City" is (for me) one of the best rock albums ever done.

The only weird thing is that the CD releases are all backwards, and start with Side 2 of the LP (Surrounded by the Stars) and the album flows better the other way.

That's the original track order as released in Europe. It was the American LP release that reversed the sides.

I have the U.A. gatefold and side 1 starts with Surrounded By The Stars - and that's how I've always known it.

"Surrounded by the Stars" is the first track on the A-side of the LP, so the order is correct.
