If it in fact is Pink Floyd's Echoes and not some obscure Echos-tune I don't know about - I think it will end up about 80% of the votes.

Echos...

Echoes it is and you want to make a bet on the 80%?

Not many songs I'd pick over Echoes, however Baker Street Muse is one of them.

I like both songs, but Echoes is something special.

Baker St. Muse, although it is a song cycle and not a long trippy jam like Echoes.

Echoes, Baker is great too. Would be much harder decion if it had been Echoes vs Thick as a Brick.

Good idea Morte! Why don't you put that up as a poll?!

Love them both, but Tull has the edge for this poll.

I'll take BSM. All Floyd has really just fallen off the radar for me.

Jethro for sure, one of the better prog pieces from mid 70s and one of Jethro finest

I'll give Echoes the edge finally - over a good Tull song, but not one of the classics. I think it's found it's level now. Hopefully we won't need to vote on Echoes v Nutrocker now.

I decided to look up other songs on youtube called Echoes, and was surprised when I clicked on one by a band called the Rapture, that the Rapture's Echoes was used as the theme song of one of my favourite modern shows, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3ztEg2n9W_8" rel="nofollow - Misfits .
Last night it was very close to 80% pro Echoes, but Baker St. Muse has gained some ground percentage-wise.
Anyway, Pink Floyd's "Echoes" gets my vote

Baker Street Muse. I love Echoes, but it gets a little long (and boring) in the middle. BSM keeps me entertained all way through.

Baker Street Muse.
------------- A GREAT YEAR FOR PROG!!!

I would actually be surprised if echoes did not top BSM by a margin of two to one.

Yep, Echoes.

Hmm, there isn't a don't like either option this time around...so I pick Echoes - it might be somewhat lame but BSM is dire
Posted By: micky
Date Posted: March 22 2018 at 20:40
again... Echoes easily... good song to get stoned to..and/or act like rabbits with a member of the fairer sex...
so it gets my vote over a rather mediocre Dull tune.

Echoes. Love the Minstrel in the Gallery album on the whole, the Baker Street Muse included, but that particular track just doesn't have the same magic as Echoes.
