Camel by far, followed by Renaissance, two more than credible efforts at updating the prog sound to the 1980s

I dare not even ask what "QFT" means. I just hope it's not something rude. Tongue

I really hope it's Quoted for Truth... Otherwise I would be severely offended LOL

Pink Floyd - Animals (1977)
 
No, I know how to behave in the restaurant now, I don't tear at the meat with my hands. If I've become a man of the world somehow, that's not necessarily to say I'm a worldly man.

Should have been Floyd, but after a crap album like The Single Factor, the return of Camel to a good album deserves a vote.
I stand with Roger Waters, I stand with Joan Baez, I stand with Victor Jara, I stand with Woody Guthrie. Music is revolution

I'm glad that Curved Air is being included.  I think they'll be battling with Gentle Giant for quite a few of my votes.

It came down to a choice between Greenslade and Gentle Giant for Part Three, but although I prefer Greenslade, I chose Gentle Giant mainly because they have more albums to their name and they're also generally regarded as being in the "second tier" of British prog. Smile
 
On the subject of Curved Air, I also managed to include Darryll Way's Wolf in Part Three, although it was tricky to decide whether he should be listed under "D" or "W" Smile

I'm assuming whoever voted for Queen's Hot Space album wishes to remain anonymous. Smile

A couple stand out, but a surprisingly dismal list of albums IMO.

I guess it might be fitting to do one last such poll, just to contemplate The Wall too.

That's fair enough, but the only dismal album for me in the poll is by King Crimson.
 
I hope I can come up with some better album choices for you in Part Three. Smile

I think an eleventh album poll would mainly be a battle between Pink Floyd and Yes again, but I wouldn't like to bet on who would win. Personally, it's a Yes vote for me, but only by a narrow margin. Smile
