My top five:

- Summer In Nagasaki
- Tangram 2008
- Views From A Red Train
- Booster
- Hyperborea 2008

I think it's very clear to love the old ones as they are top classics!
But finally we arrived at the 21st Century and I love the new compositions immensely! :wink:

@all

Mayby it is time for a top30 (50) for TD tracks ?
And a top15 for TD albums.

Or has this been done before ?

Think a poll is not suitable.

The results in the one poll were to say the least a big shock :oops:

Wow,
Thks 24db, fast response.

This blows me off my feet ! Did not noticed this one before.

Am speechless, but ever heared one talk in a forum ;-).
And Chris`s poll is indeed very thorough.

And Logos at nr.1 is a place suitable.

Maybe time to repeat it ?? 2008? , 2009?

No problem

I think Chris's poll is the most complete (we can all argue whether we agree what was the top album or where our favourite came until the cows come home). And to be honest I don't think a single one of us needs anybody to rubber stamp our tastes to know what we like. However...polls can be a laugh :)

@24db
Taste is a personal opinion to be respected, I fully agree.

And in case of TD music it is hard to say what is the best, or the worst.
Until this moment I can not, and I think I never will, determine it for myself.
In my opinion there are a lot of jewels in between.

And Chris`s poll is indeed very complete, and a sum of all tastes.
And it is not my intention to rubber stamp, was surprised Logos to find nr1.

Cheers Peter, Btw I think I should correct myself, I think Chris actually ran it over here...hence the slight bias towards the more modern stuff
