I think I only have around 10 of his albums, and amongst this list - apart from the 'usual suspects' , I simply adore Silent Nights (and the following Live At Hammersmith) and his collaboration with RPI singer Mario Fasciano - the stunning Stella Bianca. Simply too much hit and miss offerings from Rick overall.

What? No one has 1979's Rhapsodies as part of their Top 10? We (the lads and I) used to call it the "oom-pah" album when it first came out. Hard on the ears.

Don't know any of his stuff from the past 25 years, but of his original stuff:
Criminal Record Six Wives King Arthur Rhapsodies Crimes of Passion Journey to the Centre of the Earth No Earthly Connection These are all I know and the only ones I have actually listened to in the past 30 years are the top three.

His 6 Wives Excerpts on Yessongs has always been more than enough for me

I was there at that concert... well, the first night, the official release was from the second night (though they did a recording of the concert at the moment... and that's the version I have on CD, still I wonder why artists take so much time to release a live album after the concert, if it can be done in less than half an hour and have perfect sound quality anyway). I also have the DVD, but that one is the usual release from the second night).

Love Silent Nights. The perfect blend of Artsy Prog and New-Wave 80's sensibilities. Great, underrated album.
