Ha-ha.

Fans of Vangelis, Oldfield and Enid (yuck, thats where the smell is coming from) will probably love both Instructions for Angels and the stunning The Odyssey.

Stars End
& Nurses Songs With Elephants are more avantgarde. The latter album's got the amazing track Some Bright Stars for Queen's College, a composition for 80 college girls' voices and 27 plastic pipe twirlers. Here it to believe it!

That's the four albums I got by him. All so perfectly progarchives-material,  its really nothing to discuss. Add! Add!
Over land and under ashes
In the sunlight, see - it flashes
Find a fly and eat his eye
But don't believe in me
Don't believe in me
Don't believe in me

I'd support it (even though his work does not appeal to me). Any thoughts on the appropriate sub-genre?

I've seen his albums around and am surprised he's not here considering his pedigree with Oldfield etc., but if he's in the Vangelis, Oldfield and Enid mould- none of whom I have much time for, too twee and laid back for my taste- I think I'd pass.

Early Vangelis, and forget that I mentioned The Enid.

only ever heard Star's End and its follow-up.
 
Sounds RIO or Avant-prog to me.
 
But I don't know if this is representative of his career.
let's just stay above the moral melee
prefer the sink to the gutter
keep our sand-castle virtues
content to be a doer
as well as a thinker,
prefer lifting our pen
rather than un-sheath our sword
