^^ I don't want to turn this thread into an Ayreon conversation, but although I've never liked any of them (and the Star One even less)... I did enjoy the first Stream Of Passion album he was involved in and again The Gentle Storm was also pretty good, as was Guilt Machine... maybe some of his diluted side-projects with other artists were more to my taste?

Moon Safari, just ahead of Ayreon! It Bites and Martin Orford albums are also top notch😎

I love Ayreon, but the last two albums were not as good, especially Transitus. One of my all time favourite acts 😊

I'm curious why the 2nd rated album of that year was omitted Discesa Agl'Inferi d'un Giovane Amante by Il Bacio Della Medusa, but most of the rest are here. Anyway, that would've been my choice.

Birds and Buildings > Beardfish > Abel Ganz. I'm not a professor of inches, but I am a clawfoot bathtub with a pony as a sidekick.

Nice poll. I like some of them very much but since I love too 01011001 of Ayreon and it has no vote till now, my vote goes to it.
