Scottish Prog: 1st Album

Fish, followed by Ian Anderson.

My four favourite albums here rate from 2 to 5 stars in the OP. They are:

1998: Boards of Canada - Music Has the Right to Children 1982: Cocteau Twins - Garlands 1969: Writing on the Wall - Power of the Picts 1997: Mogwai - Young Team

I really like that Writing on the Wall album and have been very into Cocteau Twins in recent years, and I like Mogwai, but my choice was obvious (same as in my avatar). I really love Boards of Canada's Music Has the Right to Children. Interestingly to me, it's a rare album I have played in the car that my son has actually mentioned liking (and he tends to favour classical piano music). In fact, I think it's the only time he mentioned liking the music of something I played in the car (other than when he was really small and I would play Zelda music in the car).
