Music has always been a matter of energy to me. On some nights I believe that a car with the needle on empty can run 50 more miles if you have the right music very loud on the radio. Hunter S Thompson

I loved Ocean 2 too, but thought Tides Return Forever was also a great improvement on what went before..

I like every album Pallas have ever done, but Beat the Drum would rank about 10th for me in this poll, after the nine albums I've rated as 5-star albums. Smile

I voted for For All We Shared, but I didn't notice The Visitor, which would have probably have got my vote if I had (just). But both albums are brilliant.

I hope it won't cause any Turbulence amongst Steve Howe fans, but I've just substituted Steve for Like Wendy in tomorrow's poll, mainly because I like Wendy more than Steve.
 Sorry Steve. Ouch

Steve Howe seemed like the obvious choice to drop from the next poll, seeing as Howe he hasn't picked up any votes in this poll so far. Anyway, I think you'll Like Wendy even more. Smile

No quantum of solace for Steve Howe in this poll with no votes. Confused
