Another great year! I voted once for almost half of them with The Yes Album, Low Spark, First Utterance, Jack Johnson, and Nursery Cryme being my favorites. Although I really enjoy Aqualung and Meddle, they are just kept out of my top five here.

Don't care for the Heeps, Spirogyra, Traffic or Strawbs, but the rest could all get a vote from me.

I too usually disregard polls when they have multiple votes. I just don't know how honest the results are, anybody can just tamper them at will. I still don't understand why people do that, but it's a fact. Still, this poll seems honest enough so far... and I think the last multiple choice polls I've seen haven't seemed as if they were tampered with... but who knows.

All I like is prog related bands beginning late 60's/early 70's. Their music from 1968 - 83 has the composition and sound which will never be beaten. Perfect blend of jazz, classical, folk and rock.

Aqualung isn't in the top 5 but the remaster would be number 1. Lots of strong tracks on disc 2 and first half of side 1. If you haven't got the quad cd then you gotta hear it. Hymn 43 sound way better
