My personal favorite of these is Amon Duul II, their LP "Wolf City" rates with other classics of the era. RIP bassist Lothar Meid, one of my favorites!

I really appreciate all the input so far from everyone. And based partly on the fact that they're currently winning in this poll I just listened to Yeti again and imo it is VERY good. Not to diss the other bands though, Ocean is certainly a quite pleasurable listening experience and obviously Script.. by Marillion is really good as well(as Dellinger mentioned). And Lazland, I will have to check out some of that Other Guy's stuff with Marillion now(Hogarth).. Afraid of Sunlight, Brave, Marbles, and FEAR. Thanks again everyone.

Great, great live album Del, can't go wrong with Made Again. This one's highly recommended too, probably my favorite live Hogarth: Full Seasons End (disc 1) and terrific live versions of some of HITR best songs (disc 2). Here Edited by Barbu - August 22 2017 at 12:18 |

Any one of the Weekend CDs are far superior to Made Again, I think. |

Let's just say that for the casual (read: normal) fan, Made Again is probably the best pick. |

Hey - its cool they give bands and albums second chances (i noticed in the Breathless/Attahk-poll too). Plenty of bands I've come to love weren't instant love for sure - and some that were, aren't all that important to me now.

Yeah Magma for sure. The first time I heard MDK I thought it was terrible and couldn't understand why so many people on here liked it(thought a lot of them must just be saying that to fit in lol). But then someone on the thread you mentioned really turned me on to them with some live clips that I liked, and now I think that album is GREAT. In fact I use it often for my meditation. |

I should be meditating more. I practice mindfulness, but am not mindful enough to do it regularly.

If you haven't read 'Being Peace' by Thich Nhat Hanh, I very highly recommend it. |

I was lent the book by a psychologist/ Buddhist friend of mine years ago, but failed to read it then. I will look to get it. What I love about so much about Buddhist philosophy and practices is that it is so psychological-oriented, and although I wouldn't consider myself as religious, spending time at temples has been a "spiritual" experience for me. Meditation, particularly mindfulness, is something that has helped a lot in managing my dysfunctionality -- has helped me and in my interactions with others (being at peace with oneself and others). I know that I should put more time into it for my well-being and others. One of these days I would like to go to a meditation retreat. |

Marillion with either Fish or Chips. Both are swell.

Oh yeah, you're clearly someone who 'gets it.' I'm a Christian first myself. But the teachings Buddhism, along with my daily meditation practice have helped me immensely to be relaxed and at peace and to be able to smile and share my peace with others. Temples can contain a lot of spiritual energy that can be an experience for sure. And always remember, "Present moment wonderful moment." :) |

I guess he's calling the other guy 'Chips' so it will be like "Fish and Chips" or something like that. I'm not really sure though, I think he's just too clever for either of us really. And it's interesting to me that they are currently in last place in the poll(though not by much).. yet they have been talked about way more than either of the other two bands so far in this thread.. |

Ah I see Marillion has now pulled into a tie with Eloy here. I listened to Yeti again today and.. no. I think that Amon Düül II is maybe not a good fit for me after all. But I am really loving Eloy and Marillion so far, they are both surprisingly good actually.
So thanks again everyone for your responses and keeping this thread alive. |
