Siberian Khatru  I love the guitar outro.  Very different and cool.

He really works up a sweat with Siberian Khatru, so it's that.

I guess it's "Gates"! I never thought it'd be this much of a runaway!

First vote for the Ancient, and just for his acoustic solo, one of his lost classic pieces.

I'll have to go back through and think about it. Right now I'm leaning towards something from TFTO, which he just kind of lets loose all throughout. HOWEver, I do believe South Side Of The Sky definitely ranks as some of his most impressive work. His tone is decidedly metallic without having the sludgy quality of most 70s heavy metal players, and his fills are pure wizardry.
Porg for short. My love of music doesn't end with prog! Feel free to discuss all sorts of music with me. Odds are I'll give it a chance if I haven't already! :)

I want a/THE song that showcases his diverse skills, including composition and style. "Mood for a Day" is just one dimension of Mr. Howe, agreed?

"Turn of the Century" was the last song I cut off! But, I agree: it is awesome and gorgeous from the guitarists perspective (always thought it dragged on a bit with too much "sameness"--a very long ballad.)

I agree that "South Side" and "Heart of the Sunrise" have great exposition of Steve's skills; just wanted some songs in which his playing/contributions were more central/forward.
