09.02.14 | Top 3 are all that matter |

09.02.14 | Indeed. They descended into mediocrity after LLR&R and not even the guitar and keyboard solos save it from that descent. |

09.03.14 | What about Finyl Vinyl and On Stage? I like both of those. |

09.20.14 | Damn missed this list. Love everything from 1-5 and I do have a soft spot for 8. If I had to do a ranking I'd probably go 1 3 2 4 5 8 6 7. |

09.20.14 | 3 holds a special spot for me, as it is one of the first rock albums I got my hands on. |
Snowdog808
09.20.14 | It is amazing for sure, but the band explored far more magical, emotional, and bombastic territory with their next two. |
manosg
09.20.14 | Love the renaissance feeling on Sixteenth Century Greensleeves and Catch The Rainbow is magical as well. |
Snowdog808
09.20.14 | Sure, but they made that feeling extend for more of the album on Rising, even to the point of conceptual storytelling for the whole second side of the album. |

09.20.14 | More of a sentimental value for me to be honest. I was 13 into Maiden and Metallica when my math tutor (!) lent me the aforementioned album along Camel's "Snowgoose", Genesis’ “Selling England…” and Bad Co's self titled debut… all in vinyl : D |
Snowdog808
09.20.14 | Then he was a freaking awesome tutor for sure. |

09.20.14 | I thought 7 had a few good songs. Nothing comparable to Dio, but "Death Alley Driver" and "Stone Cold" were a good start. |

09.21.14 | Stone Cold is my favorite from the album and I do enjoy Miss Mistreated too. |
