Okay, here's the deal. I've decided while everyone is super hyped for Dream Theater I'm going to play a full album from Dream Theater on my radio show Monday. This means two things. First, you guys get to vote on which album gets played, and second, you're all invited to come chat about the album while it's being played.

The show's site is www.wpapu.com and it starts at 6pm Eastern on Monday.

I'm throwing my vote behind Scenes From a Memory, because concept albums in full are the way to go.

I had to go with Awake.  As a "go to" album, it isn't picked as often, however it still (kind of) posses the concept album quality.  Plus, there are a ton of great tuns on that album.  It's become one of my favorites as late.

I'll have to make sure and catch the radio show.  I hadn't heard of it till I started frequenting this forum!
:metal :metal :metal :metal :metal

great idea, I will try to make it....voted BCSL

Scenes would be the way to go. Its their most accesible cd. And would go well in popular radio

SFAM is a good choice. Or Black Clouds and Silver Linings because it flows well, has a good variety, is their most recent, and closes with one of their best.

psychdoc

A tough choice for me. "Images And Words" has a special place in my heart and I would love to hear some of it played on the radio again. However, I voted "Scenes..." because it's a great concept album that really lends itself to be played in its entirety to be enjoyed as an experience.

I&W, because I don't like too abrupt transitions from song to song in SFAM due to your radio show, Nick.

Yes it is, but come Monday if it looks to be the album in question I'll load all the tracks into audacity and make it one big file so that won't happen. :)

SFAM. If you're going to play anything in its entirety, it's SFAM.

Aniland

I chose 6DOIT since it's the longest and it is the one I'm most into listening to from front to back.

Ħ

Why don't you just play one album a week?  Hopefully that will make it in time for the new album.

And I voted SFAM.

Perpetual Change

Say, Nick, any chance you might play that "alternate" Scenes mix? I've never heard it.

Nick

I can play you a track or two for you another time, but if it wins it'll be the normal version for this.
