^Area and Osanna
Orme would be 2 on my big 5 list.. behind Osanna (love all their albums.. not just the monsterous Palepoli) and just ahead of PFM who were just ahead of Area.. with a rather large drop off to Banco.

I'm far from an RPI expert (own 60-70 titles maybe) but from the big 5? you mentioned (Orme, Banco, Pfm - who's the other two?) Pfm is prob my least fave. Love em of course but not as much as Banco. My all-time RPI fave is the great Orme...pure musical magic, man!

^ which of those 3 would you consider your fav
Hmmm hard to tell..Io Sono probably since it was my entry point to Banco. Darwin is mental and the début not far behind for me. Anyway, any respectable music collection should have these 3 little gems afaic.
