We have 15 albums from 15 different sub-genres all coming in at 51st place.
One vote.
I could vote for over a half dozen of these but nothing stands out. I'm leaning towards that Aerolit album though. I might have to play that one later.

Amarok

Mike Oldfield was really flying the flag for out there mad as hell prog rock (sort of). I played Amarok a lot when it came out but not so much now. It was 1990 and there was chuff all else though

Wow, what a tough choice.

I got to go with Echolyn by a smidgen over Shadow Gallery, Clepsydra , and Amoeba Split.

A shout out to Koenji Hyakkei, Miles Davis, and Alusa Fallax. I adore their albums too.

This might be the only cd I bought where I had the choice of 3 album covers. Weird. They offered one with an octopus, a turkey or a fish. All very unattractive by the way. Good music though. I got the turkey.

A two horse race. I could have voted for this one. This is a top three or four by them. They have released many quality albums.

And this is the other horse in this two horse race. Thanks Jared! What a comeback album for Oldfield, rivalling his stuff from the first half of the seventies. This one is different.

I have the remastered version that came in the box set and it has all three of them pictured on the cover. I wonder what the reasoning behind the different covers is?

I've always wondered, "Why three different covers?" I got the fish.
