Fabulous album for me, full of epics, guitars and keyboards. Not easy choice, but Breaking the spell is so emotional and so progressive, that I love this track.

I've gone for 'Last Man On Earth' but I think you'll find this and BtS will be No1 and 2 at the end of the poll... arguably their best album, though...

I find this to be one of their lesser albums.  But I'll take BTS for the wonderful guitar.

After The Jewel, I like this Pendragon album the best. "Breaking The Spell" has always been the album's highlight.

Great album. Last Man on Earth for me, but Walls of Babylon and Breaking The Spell are equally up there.

Another s****y neo-prog album, a total rip off with no originality at all, just like all that other horrid neo-prog rubbish. 

Pity my ears make me play it so often. Tasteless, naughty ears! Pity my emotions want me to give it a 5* review. They must be purged!

If I had to pick one track it would be Breaking the Spell, but the version on And Now Everybody to the Stage is even better. But I could have picked any of them really; they're all excellent.

There goes any credibility I ever had, I guess.

The Walls of Babylon.

 
Very good album - though a few steps down (IMHO) from anything in between The Masquerade Overture - Passion

Indeed. But you must have missed the idiotic vitriol directed at neo-prog as a genre in the knockout poll. All the neo-prog lovers were sent to sit on the naughty step by the Arbiters of Taste who rule this site.

Yeah, I saw it. And thought it was a stupid and intolerant thread.

Great album, I like The Last Man on Earth.

When he rides, my fears subside.
For darkness turns once more to light.
Through the skies, his white horse flies.
To find a land beyond the night.

Actually, as a former professional mathematical astrophysicist I should have voted for Nostradamus out of loyalty. I also am surprised it has no votes - I love it.

Maybe cos is the less prog? Indeed is a great track, the guitar riff, the way Barret sings, all is good in this song, as on the overall album.
