Gentle Giant are magnificent, and Renaissance are only a smidgeon behind. The other two hold no interest for me whatsoever. ------------- A TVR is not a car. It's a way of life. |

| All but the bottom one again. Was listening to The Residents today (for the first time actually) and they really don't come close to these bands... |

I haven't heard The Residents yet but Gentle Giant and Tangerine Dream do nothing for me, so I'll only vote for Renaissance.

| I guess that as much of an experimental music enthusiast as I am ... was, I've yet to do some more exploration of The Residents' stuff. However, given what I've heard, my votes of admiration go to TD, GG, and Renaissance. |

| Could only do Renaissance. I can only take Gentle Giant and Tangerine Dream in judiciously small portions, and I have never heard of The Residents. |

Really love the music of all four of them. The Residents are perhaps my least favorite but I can't let go of them. So, it is my second least favorite: GG. ------------- The world of sound is certainly capable of infinite variety and, were our sense developed, of infinite extensions. -- George Santayana, "The Sense of Beauty" |

Wouldn't giving everyone a single vote and telling them to vote for their least favorite accomplish roughly the same goal without the ability to break your rules?

Tough choice. Let's see. Renaissance and TD get in, and the Residents beat GG by a whisker for third rank. Could be different on another day. |

GG, TD, R. As for the Residents to be seen to be most appreciated pretty much negates the point of music. Blind people won't much out of anything that depends on visuals. Which means most opera, Kiss as well as The Residents. And missing out on on horrendous album covers (kind of a shame) and dreadful '80s pop videos. |

Gentle Giant, Renaissance & Tangerine Dream. The Residents have never really been my thing, but are the only one of the aforementioned I had a chance to see live (and I have to admit, 90% of the time I was bored to death).

Ditto. That said, I like Renaissance's first album enough to want to vote for all of the choices. If I were to rank the three I'm voting for at this time: 1. Tangerine Dream 2. The Residents 3. Gentle Giant At one time Gentle Giant would surely have been my favourite band, but I went off them many years ago. I returned to some of the music recently and did enjoy it again, but I don't think I'll ever like the band nearly as much as I once did. The Residents was much more of a slow-burner to get into than the others, although I liked Eskimo from first listen, but I've been appreciating them more-and-more over the years. It's such a different case from Gentle Giant, which I got into immediately, but burnt out on not that long after. The slow-burners do tend to burn the longest, but there are many bands, artists and albums that I have regularly listened to for many years now that I never tired of.... ------------- Just a fanboy passin' through. |
