You're right, I also think it works well as it is right now but I had to ask. Smile

My top five from this would probably be:

5. Rush
4. Yes
3. Iron Maiden
2. Peter Gabriel
1. David Bowie

And an honourable mention for McCartney II, which has no votes yet, and may well receive no votes at all. I know loads of people hate it, but it’s one of the few McCartney albums I like.

Yes > Rush > Genesis - These three are all fairly close for me.

The Return of a Friendly Duke Wavering between Heaven and Hell, Between Flesh and Divine, between Scary Monsters and Super Creeps. In that order.

Have to go with Rush here, although Drama is one my favourite Yes albums...

I'd have to flip for either Rush or Yes, but I'm going to throw Dio-Sabbath a bone.

Let's just hope The Turn of a Friendly Card doesn't turn out to be the Ace of Spades. Smile

'Drama' and 'Permanent Waves' have equal votes. We desperately need a winner! Big smile

Overall, I definitely faaaaaar prefer Rush to Yes, but in this case, Drama does trump Waves.

between Permanent Waves and Drama for me. I went latter because it still stands as a unique moment in prog while Rush were still on an evolutionary path.

Are we having a draw for the first time on RAC? Interesting, I can now reveal that I expected 'Drama' to be the unprecedented winner but that's not exactly the case. Can we have a winner 'til the end of the day?
