Come on now, Quatermass only made one album (albeit a decent one), while Le Orme has excelled for almost forty years. No comparison.

Why do people keep posting these irrelevant and pointless topics. What does it matter how two bands compare? In all honesty, there are very few albums/bands in my collection which sound like clones of other artists. All that matters is whether you like the music or not. On that basis, I have known of the Quatermass album since 1971 and have rated it in my top ten of all time since that time. Of Le Orme it is a matter of recent, fruitful exploration. First discovered in the last six months or so, together with many, many other fantastic Italian bands.

It is practically impossible to vote in this poll, because QUATERMASS published only an (excellent) album in 1970, one of the most attractive of that period, while LE ORME (that I love a lot), although with a sound very centered on the keyboards especially in their first 3 or 4 albums (like ELP and QUATERMASS), have a long discography that leaves from the '68 (more or except for) until to arrive the days, so the comparison won't stand.
