I'm surprised Trilogy is faring so well. For me, it's BSS all the way, one of my favorite albums ever. Not that I don't like Trilogy, in fact I love it. But for me it doesn't hold a candle to BSS, which is just on a different plane.
The last two songs on Trilogy I've always found a little weak, and the song Trilogy seems to lose focus a bit near the end. No weak moments for me on BSS for me, including Benny, which I know a lot of people don't like. I think Karn Evil First and Second Impressions and Toccata are masterpieces of the style. BSS really is one of those albums that if I could only listen to one for the rest of my life, that would likely be my choice.
But at the moment it looks like Trilogy will win this bracket. So it goes.
