Re: Moon O'Poll 2008 Results
 

Completely unfamiliar, so I looked them up, neat band Keith.

Interesting line here:

"The best way to think of them is as the albums Tony Banks could make if Tony made progressive rock solo albums instead of trying to match the chart success of Phil Collins and Mike Rutherford."

Re: Moon O'Poll 2008 Results
 

Tell me I'm wrong but for the Moon Poll 2008 I remember they said : NO LIVE ALBUMS !
And there are many live albums above : Haze, Rush, David Gilmour,....

Re: Moon O'Poll 2008 Results
 

Live was OK. There wasn't supposed to greatest hits or compilations. Rush was even on Woj's list of 08 releases. Actually I didn't include the Rush myself, but meant to.
