Olias of Sunhillow is New Age in the exact same way that Led Zeppelin I is prog.  Their entrance stamps are backdated.
 
NukeExclamation That's what puzzles me: When I looked in this thread for the last time, Fish had just a few more votes than Olias, but now it is 112 against 21. I don't know if the Frenchmen are behind this, though...

112 ???? I have voted Fish, but I'm not sure that he has sold so many copies Confused
That's really strange, even because I see no sense in bribing in a poll in general and on this one in particular.
Who likes Fish would probably like Olias, too.

Effectively I don't understand the meaning of "French Men".  A hacker maybe?

I'm quite surprised Fish is so far ahead. I like both but I think I love Olias a bit more.
 
PS - I've seen rumours of JA recording Olias II.

I see this poll allows multiple votes, that explains a lot.

I gave a few votes for Olias, but seeing Fish was behind I gave it a few more. LOL

Olias of Sunhillow is New Age in the exact same way that Led Zeppelin I is prog.  Their entrance stamps are backdated.

That's why I said some sort of Proto New Age Wink
I don't have a problem with that.  Some others that fit that bill: Sally Oldfield's Water Bearer, Shadowfax's Watercourse Way, Jon and Vangelis' Short Stories, and yes, even Fish Out Of Water.

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