My personal favourit is the impronouncible "Force Majeure". It's also 
the leasst progressive and most "tune-like" album. But then again, 
"Canayon Dreams" is rather good too. And don't forget Rubycon (although 
it's a very short album). In fact, hell, there are too many great albums 
to list...

[Especially amusing is that some of them are live AND I DIDN'T NOTICE!]

Don't know Radiohead. [Obviously I've heard of them, and I've probably 
heard their music, but I wouldn't recognise it.]

Hmm... this isn't really my taste.
