Since there is no 'Both'- option I give the edge to Take a Pebble. -------------

I perfer Take a Pebble, dag nabbit! But seriously, ELP and Kansas are at two entirely different levels of prog, and ELP is, of course, towards the top. Take a Pebble demonstrates that thoroughly when juxtaposed against what I feel is a nominal effort like Song For America. ------------- "It just has none of the qualities of your work that I find interesting.

That's a tough one.....the first ELP album is my favorite by them and that might be my favorite Kansas album. Went with Pebble because that first ELP album holds many memories for me from college days. ------------- One does nothing yet nothing is left undone. Haquin |

ELP all the way. Take a Pebble is one of their best. ------------- "You never had the things you thought you should have had and you'll not get them now..." |
