Hi everybody. Thanks for all of your help finding me a whole new rich vein of neoclassical, progressive bands. Now I'm looking for something else and I know you folks can help. Recently I purchased "Tortoise" by the Dutch band TRION. Yeah, yeah, the 70's prog influences are all over the place but I find it as exciting an instrumental piece of work as I've ever heard just LOADED with the 'Tron. I've been trying to find other things like this but have only succeeded in tracking down "Symphony For The Holacaust" which is also drenched in 'Tron but is pretty dark. Can anyone suggest something similarly upbeat and warm (and preferably instrumental) like "Tortoise"?

Great to notice that almost every week progheads are begging for Mellotron drenched prog!

You can give these CD's a try:

Spring-Spring/Anekdoten-Vemod(re-issue)/Landberk-Lonely Land/Mikromidas-Brennende Drommer/Epidaurus-?/Greenslade-Live 1975/Fantasy-Beyond The Beyond/Le Orme-Uomo Di Pezza
