Cygnus X-1 Book II: Hemispheres. The other Rush tracks, Manfred Mann's and UK are also excellent. -------------

Thank God for Rush and Hemispheres!
For me, easily the best album of 1978.
I remember when I bought the new releases in 1978 by Yes, Genesis, Tull & ELP thinking to myself - don't worry they will soon retrieve their mojo...

Tough, but La Villa Strangiato gets it for me.
Rush's best instrumental. ------------- A TVR is not a car. It's a way of life. |

I know I may stay alone but I think that "Martha's Madman" belongs to the very best recordings of the Earth Band. I'm commercially depraved I suppose ! ------------- ...I'm a musician/singer/songwriter, visit me on www.reverbnation.com/rupertlenz and there you can choose from 125 recordings you can listen to ( for free ) if you're not limited to prog-rock ! |

| Whoa, this is a tougher one, could have been La Villa Strangiato or Elohim's Voyage, but I'll go with Squarer for Maud. |

Strangiato is probably my fave from the list but I may place a strategic vote for one of Oldfield, National Health or Gabriel Will hold off for now :) ------------- Prog On! |

This was a hard one - so many good tracks! This was a big year for me, giving me my first Rush and Pat Metheny. 1. Incantations Pt. 4. 2. Martha's Madman. 3. La Villia Strangiato. 4. On the Silent Wings of Freedom. 5. Phase Dance. 6. Please Dont' Touch. 7. The Trees. ------------- The world of sound is certainly capable of infinite variety and, were our sense developed, of infinite extensions. -- George Santayana, "The Sense of Beauty" |

Steve Hackett - Please Don't Touch!

| Voted for UK - Dead In The Night although when it comes to the final I will switch to La Villa Stangiatio which for me is the absolute stand out track of the year. Both those tracks though have almost a jazz approach which is interesting. 1978 was a year when hardly anyone released symphonic prog. Punk really through a hand grenade into the prog scene. |

Sorry, can't help you. After listening through all the tracks once it came down to Weidorje or Oldfield. In the end I chose the latter. -------------
