Thanks for all the suggestions! Keep them coming if you have more.

Really good to get some from East Europe as I am not at all familiar. There definitely seems to be a rich history. I will need listen and see what I can get hold of through Amazon Music Unlimited. A few of these are there!

The Magma suggestions are appreciated. I had never really listened to much before. 

The RIO/Avant suggestions are also appreciated. It's not a genre I know much of. I have liked various artists in the past but never really delved in. I am putting a Yowie track on my playlist. I think these (RIO/avant music) need to be mixed in with other types of tracks for the plane ride. I have to be careful that I don't doze off and wake up screaming in the middle of a track.

I am not flying out until Friday, so that'll give me time to update my playlist.

Off the top of my head, examples could include "Generale!" by PFM, "Ace Of Wands" by Steve Hackett, "Neurotica" by King Crimson, "Sound Chaser" by Yes, "Cogs In Cogs" by Gentle Giant and "Brujo" by Area. Perhaps also "Nekomajin vs" by Nuito if you have a tolerance for math rock Wink

Good suggestions. At least a couple of these are going on my playlist. I haven't decided on the Nuito track but I am open to math rock.

Man, speaking of playlists... I have a my collection mostly ripped to this computer, Vroomfondel.  I love to use Winamp on shuffle just to see what comes up a random.  Making a playlist of that size would be quite an undertaking.  Keep on progging.  One of my newer discoveries from out of Russia would be Iamthemorning.  Plenty of stuff on your list that I know well and plenty I have never heard before. Big smile

Released date are often when it it impacted you but recorded dates are when it really happened...

The one that comes to mind if I'm understanding the "in your face" correctly(even though I haven't heard it in a long time)is nucleus by Anekdoten.

Hi,

Easy for me on this one ... even though there are a few of them out there, and Amon Duul 2 takes the cake here ... by having some really strong and incendiary listens ... that most fans can not handle very well ... the lyrics for "Mozambique" are scary ... but then, we already think that history is just another WD movie!

My choice?

ELP's Tarkus ... and guess what the lyrics are about ... in your face! ... don't give me lies ... punctuated by a drum ... it really does not get too much better than that!
Music is not just for listening ... it is for LIVING ... you got to feel it to know what's it about! Not being told!
