For our next Extended Play Lounge, I'm making this one a VINYL edition. These are all LPs that I now have in my possession that I have not yet heard. Which one is your choice?

Note: I've left out Quadrophenia this time...but it will return to the poll soon.

Note: I've heard Safe (Canon Song) from Fish Out of Water, and I've heard Departure and Ride My See-Saw from In Search of the Lost Chord. 

The voting on this round will go through Friday Night. Happy Voting!

Gone with my first love (Moodies) but I sincerely hope you get to do all these.

Gotta give Ambrosia a chance. Forget the commercial stuff. This is a different level

Olias vs. Fish is just not right! You'll be splitting up votes there. With Fish Out Of Water, there are a number of songs that can stand independently, while Olias is really an experience that must be consumed whole - making it the most appropriate for EPL and getting my vote. Olias is "different" in a lot of ways like "The Remembering" is different.

I need Fish Out Of Water to win for my sanity

The Underfall Yard is one of the best albums of the 21st Century and is right up there with the best classic Prog.

The Underfall Yard is the first with David Longdon (r.i.p.), and marks the beginning of a new area of this marvellous band, inlcuding the incredible "Victorian Brickwork" - the name alone is unique to the song titles of Big Big Train.

Lost Chord gets my vote. It brings back SO many seminal memories for me, and I discovered it before I heard DOFP. So it was the Moodies’ “first” music, in my experience. I was 16 years old. I was captivated by the album art. I fell immediately in love with the sound of the Mellotron (NO ONE ever played it as effectively and masterfully as Mike Pinder). The wall of their choral “Ah’s” sent my heart soaring. It changed me, profoundly and spiritually. It is definitely a product of its era (1968), and needs to be evaluated on that basis. While other musicians might surpass them in some ways, it was a groundbreaking album.

I'm eager to get to all of these, so I included them just to see which one y'all think I should hear first. :)

I truly do not understand how Fish out of Water is beating Olias of Sunhillow.
