As the results are tallied , here's the winner. ...

The most popular, as listed by Viva RM subscribers, Roxy Music album is..... oh, site owner, do tell.

My vote goes for "Stranded".

Sad man that I am, I've just counted the votes on the relevant thread! :geek:

Leaving aside the possibility of any member voting more than once, and giving 0.5 marks where someone couldn't choose between two albums, I think the current picture is as follows:

[u]Favourite[u]
16.5 Stranded
15 For Your Pleasure
5.5 Country Life
2 Roxy Music/Avalon
1 Siren/Viva! Roxy Music/Flesh & Blood
0 Manifesto

[u]Least Favourite[u]
16 Manifesto
13 Flesh & Blood
5 Siren
4 Avalon
3 Roxy Music
1 Stranded
0 For Your Pleasure/Country Life/Viva! Roxy Music

I must find time to cast my own votes, if only to push FYP up to its rightful place! ;)

The "favourites" list suggests that we might all be broadly of the same age (or merely that true quality lasts?), in which case I'm shocked that the debut album and Stranded should be anyone's [u]least[u] favourite... :?

OK Smudge, I have just put another tick in the box for FYP so if you get in there quickly you can bump it up to where it belongs.

I agree Smudge, personally, my choice of "FYP" is only a cigarette paper's width ahead of Stranded and the debut. "FYP" wins on the fact I love every track to bits, whereas with the debut I tend to skip The Bob or Bitters End, and skip Psalm on Stranded. Having said that, I think Avalon is perfect...oh bugger, I'm all confused now....

I think that's it. I'm only 30, but the first 3 albums are my favorites by far, in spite of the 80s being my favorite decade for music by far!
