Thanks to all who participated over the past year, it seemed like RPI and Canterbury were the two most popular sub-genres from the start.
I'm going with Third just over Caravan then PFM.

Not bad at all, it was hoping too much I suppose for an Amon Duul II album or Univers Zero or Miles or Frank. Meldoic albums are more popular although Third certainly is more on the adventerous side for the most part with lots of dissonance.

I thought it was strange because we were still under a dictatorship back then and not many bands from other countries played here. Miles Davis played here in 1971 though Smile

Well all things considered it  was  a pretty good final with just 8 votes right now seperating the three albums.  Thanks for your vote Greg and especially the feedback over the past months.
