So they're all good in my mind.

*Vol 4 may vie for this title, and it is my favorite of Sabbath's catalog, and possibly my favorite by its prolific producer, Cocaine. But SBS's use of symphonies and prog rock effects is, IMO, next level.

I confess to loving prog rock. The first 10 Genesis albums and all Gabriel solo. Rush. King Crimson. Jethro Tull. IQ. Camel. ELP. Pink Floyd. Hawkwind (Lemmy's first band). Kansas. Saga. Early Styx. Uriah Heep. All are the tits. And, my fave, Marillion (only with Fish).
Edit - some Roger Waters solo. "These Are The Pros and Cons of Hitch Hiking" is also the tits.
