Two of my absolute favorites here from Genesis and Yes. Have to vote for Yes.

In retrospect, I wish I'd included Barclay James Harvest in this series of polls (even though PA has them listed as Crossover Prog). They've always meant much more to me than just a Poor Man's Moody Blues


This sounds like classic Symphonic Prog to me. Wink

For me it would be between Mirage and Turn of the Cards... with Journey to the Center of the Earth close. But since the real battle is between Relayer and Lambe, and I do love Gates of Delirium, while I have never understood the love for Lamb, I go with Relayer.

You slipped in one of the best live albums ever made - so, I will ignore that and move to the Lamb/Relayer dilemma - this time giving it to 'Relayer' on first love basis... (bought when I was 12)

It's rather close between (but voted for Mirage):
Camel - Mirage
Renaissance - Turn of the Cards
Genesis - The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway +

Yes - Relayer is quite an achievement and spectacular, but do I ever listen to it? No.
