I second 2000 light years...  I love when a band that is not known for keyboards makes the top of the tron list...  Such a big middle finger to the neo prog bands that can actually use 2 (not 1) fingers at a time...

(so my list includes cool people who can use 2 fingers at a time...  and who drink good beers...  and who happen to have great musicians surrounding the 2 finger keyboard parts...)

And You and I...   hands down my fav

Heart of the Sunrise...   hands down my fav

All tron parts from Tales...  hands down my fav

Hero and Heroine...   hands down my fav

Watcher...   hands down my fav

Witches Promise...  The "true" sound   (runner up - CrossEyed Mary...  the reason being...  why?)

Worlds Away...  only on vinyl

Fountains of Salmacis...  crappy speakers on 10 that distort after 2 rules!!!

Tuesday Afternoon...  wonderful sound

Ritt Mickley...  Patrick, please learn CTTE and Tales, drag all your shit on a tour and watch Yes disintegrate...

The Wake...   (I think...)  wasn't it called a Novatron at that point???

I think there is more but another time...
