i've always admired pieces like "echoes" for
the simplicity, while maintaining an emotional connection.
30 years down the road, the piece holds up.
i guess that's it. i don't "connect" w/ dream theater.

I agree 100% with the sublety, that's my reason too!

Yes there has been a LOT of discussion - I own 5 Dt CD's. But Images and Words is the only one I think stands up. And I'm sorry they're touring with Yes.
