^^ Paul, that's a brilliant list, with half a dozen 5 star albums..

So, I've been a bit controversial and voted for my fave Jadis album, because I don't think anyone else will... Embarrassed

And I'm going to be Brave and stick my neck out by voting for Sally Oldfield, because I know no one else will. Embarrassed

Well done! Clap

I think with these polls, it's quite easy to vote for Marillion or DT, but it's just not as interesting if you do...

I predict a win for Marilllion in this poll, but my prediction has probably doomed them to lose now, if past experience is anything to go by. Tongue

I went with Dream Theater, but Marillion and Pink Floyd are very close runner-ups Smile
Take me down, to the underground
Won't you take me down, to the underground
Why oh why, there is no light
And if I can't sleep, can you hold my life

Lots of great albums here with Songs of Distant Earth and Talk being my favorites. This was a year where prog was hitting a new stride.

I never understand this thought process, unless you really can’t choose between albums and want to push one or other further up - surely the idea is to accurately account for the favourite across all voters?….

Brave my favourite Steve H era album

I could've chosen from any one of eleven 5-star favourites in this poll, but my natural instinct was to vote for the least likely artist to win (Sally Oldfield) because I guessed Marillion would get more than enough votes to win without any help from me. Smile
