That's a tough barrier to break my friend, but once you do...

This is so far from being a 4.5 that it isn't even funny. One of my hardest 5s.

Aumgn doesn't justify it's length and Bring Me Coffee or Tea is boring. The rest is awesome, but it's not a 5 tbh. Paperhouse and Halleluwah are the masterpieces here.

Well I can agree on Paperhouse and Halleluwah being the best 2.

It's so hard to pick a favorite, every song is amazing and different from one another. if I had to pick though, I'd probably go with Halleluwah.

Halleluwah is top 2 prog songs ever for me (other being Inca Roads by Zappa/Mothers)

Shine on You Crazy Diamond tho... But anything off of this album can certainly be argued as one of the greatest prog songs written

Those are great picks. Shine On You Crazy Diamond is for sure up there too along with Echoes.

"Nothing on here is prog. Jesus."



Except it totally is, just in a more experimental kind of way. Well I guess Aumgn and Peking O aren't, but I wasn't referring to them.

To be honest I don't quite know what it is I'd probably go for experimental, spread, jam groove splice jazz.

The free form style is very jazzy. It's definitely experimental. Basically it's one of the coolest records ever made. The groove on this thing is unreal.

"Jazz? Uh I wouldn't call it that" But this album is krautrock which is a genre that is essentially heavily influenced by jazz (and also prog). It doesn't have traditional jazz instrumentation but I guess you could say it's a bit like Talk Talk's post rock era type of jazz. idk how to explain it wel just do your homework on that genre if you have time. Also yeah the free form/jam sessions on the record are quite reminiscent, to me anyway, of Miles Davis' Bitches Brew

Mark Hollis actually said that Tago Mago is one of the most important albums made so it's not surprising at all. You can hear a lot of it in Spirit of Eden and Laughing Stock.
