Well, Marco, I have to say...I love their other albums, especially that classic `3' third one, and their comeback album is great too....also that live DVD from a few years ago is everything a fan could ask for!

But I have to confess...I think my own personal favourite has become that debut! It's so gentle, lovely, with very tasteful instrumental runs! Not a bad track on it

Hardly very proggy, but what a lovely LP it’s from:

They made better albums, but that debut is very special

Just got this the other day and it really is as advertised, takes you back to 70s sound like you are there.
Quite a good album!

Treasure Box by Greenwall is a very good Album and I would recommend it.

Narrow Pass now feature the original male singer from Eris Pluvia and will have a new Album out this year.

https://myspace.com/allegrileprotti

Damn, THEH, Thank you! Very hard to understand that site, does anyone want to please order me one of the second hand copies and I can send them a personal Paypal payment?!

If anyone can help, please just send me a private message!


Just checked the postage rates for Germany to Australia and nearly
collapsed...

It think maybe this source is better suited for you:

http://www.znrcds.com/osc/catalog/product_info.php?manufacturers_id=424&products_id=4656

Thank you, Mr H!! First of all, I was going to get a copy from the German Amazon, I got to the final order page and all up with shipping, it was going to cost me $60!!

I contacted ZNR, and I was luck to get their final copy, came it at about $28 including shipping, so less than half the Amazon price.

I'm very greatful for your help with this, and very happy to get a copy!

Love it, one of the top 2013 albums!

Check out Fabrizio Pellicciaro's post (on the page before this one).
(This was pretty much ignored here)


Ah! Damn I totally missed him, I sure do love their first album as well.

`Time consuming' would even be how I would describe your effort it providing all those links! I'm very thankful.

I heard a really nice Neo one recently called `Night Watch - Twilight', but sadly it's almost impossible to track down on CD now....Greg Walker doesn't even have it listed on his site, and the sole copy I tracked down is going for $70 US on Ebay!

^ I cherish this thread! Wink
 
I have the Mad Puppets - King Laurin and the Rosegarden.  English lyrics however, but in this case it helps to paint the picture of this concept album's tale.  I enjoy it.
 
That is quite the list Jim, Thanks!  Will have to check some of those out...

Really cherish?  Honestly, no.   Not my favorite style to begin with....most of the albums I have by these groups are ones that I enjoy occasionally when I'm in this mood.  But certainly none would rise to the level of cherishing. 

That said, I think some of these will surprise people in a good way.  I just did one song sample per band so that it wasn't too time consuming to run through them. 

To all....if any of them really grab you, let us know!Smile
