Hmm, this above stated album seemed to stop this thread dead in its tracks!

Anyway, New England by Wishbone Ash is also well worth the listen..... with tracks like Mother of Pearl, In all My Dreams (You Rescue Me), Runaway, Outward Bound, When You Know Love, Lorelei and Candlelight you can't do much better than this prog-related gem.
