Interesting. I guess Ronnie O'sullivan has something to do with prog as well. His face has something of Hitchcok's Psycho, isn't it?

Ok, I'm joking, but now I'm curious enough about Utipia Strong which I've never listened to.

Tull...then IQ..........never understood all the love for Animals, a tedious and at times pretentious lp.

Wow, this is a hard one, but I agree with Necrotica.  I imagine most people will disagree but this is when Rush started sounding like their own thing to me. Cold, nerdy, wonderful record.

I would rate them in this order:
  1. Grace Under Pressure
  2. Animals
  3. Trisector
  4. Emehntehtt-Re
  5. Songs from the Wood
  6. Three of a Perfect Pair
  7. Camera Camera
The rest I could take or leave...except for The Incident.  I can't remember ever being more disappointed by a release.

this is difficult.  Radiation and Animals are both such great albums.

1. Drama
2. Animals
3. Duke

I wake up every single day with a line/lyric from Drama in my mind.

Songs from the Wood slightly ahead of Animals. They truly deserve no. 1 & 2 in this poll.

Magma, just ahead of Pink Floyd and Jethro Tull. VDGG, King Crimson and Genesis are all solid entries into their respective discographies as well.

It's excellent. Davis plays modular synth and he's got mojo with it.

Magma wins, KC second. Always had a soft spot for 3oaPP as it was the first KC album I bought and also the first KC I heard. Encountering the 1969-1974 incarnations came as a shock after that!
