     First let me say that this is now my go to site for anything and everything prog!
That said, I picked a couple of cd's up at a garage sale with no cases. Pretty beat up but they play well. Problem is I have no idea who they are! No info on cd but picture is a beautiful lake with mountains in the back. Laser etchings say logicgeneral.com cd#1209-9451 DB-45690. No info on the internets.
Parts of the album are definitely prog with mellotron and piano with some guitar and low octave vocals amongst other sounds. Extremely pleasant all in all. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks,Jim

P.S. I have figured out one cd a s Anglagard's Hybris!

There's an application on the smartphones (shazam or something) that recognizes music.
Maybe someone of your friends has it on their Phone.

It might help if you scanned the cover in and posted it here.

No lyrics? You could just google the lyrics in quotation marks and get an exact match. Shazam works well but not sure if it's an obscure artist.

no doubt... that was the one that did tread closest to prog. Listened to that just last night in fact.  Great album

I never did get the jiist of this thread or did we just hijack it with Mac talk.  Not that hijacking threads is unheard of around here. LOL

Yeah good Album- took quite some tracking down to get it on Vinyl in OZ. 
Liked the Danny Kirwin stuff
Mac talk cool - pre 1975 for me,  hijacking threads never the thought ever occurred to meEmbarrassed

sometimes one just goes with a thread where one does...  some of the best threads here end their journeys FAR from where it started or was intended to go..

back on (off) topic...  do you have Boston Tea party live albums with Peter Green? Recorded early 1970. I'm sure you do.. but if you don't... get them. Amazing sh*t man...

Continuing off topic .......
Yeah, got a couple of version of it - there are many. Even got one on vinyl and have a bootleg CD version permanently in my Car CD stacker- is great, You know the CD Boot probably has the best sound quality out of all the ones I've got of the tea party - Peter Green was on fire along with the band special mention to Jeremy Spencer what a loon he was back then and is still going, so is Peter but not like he was.........

good shout out... being a huge Elmore James fanatic myself.. I naturally gravitated to Spencer's  showcases.

oh there are definitely many versions of it out there...  I can't speak for vinyl..  no hipster here LOL  but at least for CD this is the best version of those shows.

Not always a good strategy for:
i) instrumental music
ii) music with lyrics in a language you don't speak
iii) very obscure artists that likely don't have their lyrics posted online, either
when i was a kid a doller was worth ten dollers - now a doller couldnt even buy you fifty cents

no sh*t?  Really?  Might work for Justin Bieber songs or perhaps even SWilson LOL but for prog rock? I'd be surprised about that.

then again... it is 2016....god almight technology makes me feel old some times.

same one as you

LOL Mystery To Me title. I knew that would awaken the frosting. I believe this was more cake though(here we go w cake references). With help from Tasartir and another website I have found it! It was Deluge Grander's August in the Urals albeit a bootleg I believe. The lyrics were very difficult to understand as they were low and buried which made them dark and forboding. In retrospect a guy selling Anglagard prolly won't be selling Fleetwood Mac so Deluge Grander fits the bill. The picture is right on! I just wish it was their record of Helotians which is selling for a mint! Their YouTube video is original for one thing anyway.One guy changing all the different album covers! Forty minutes!

Thanks to everybody who helped!
