^ I listed the first album but think the 2nd "Crafty Hands" is their masterpiece (though it does have vocals in "Wind Up Doll Day Wind).

Not sure if it has been mentioned yet, but LIQUID TENSION EXPERIMENT 1&2 are incredible as well as LIQUID TRIO EXPERIMENT, which is a bit more Jazz infused than the other 2. Great stuff there. Can't go wrong.

Worth a mention are a couple of 'new age' artists. Stephen Caudel and Mark Isham. Both can play a variety of instruments with Caudel specialising on guitar and Isham on trumpet. I would recommend Wine Dark Sea ( Caudel) and Vapor Drawings (Isham) as their best works, both recorded in the eighties. Caudel released another fine album 'Earth In Torquoise' about 15 years ago which has more of a prog feel. Isham has mainly concentrated on film soundtracks since the 80's including a number of major film releases such as The Mist (strangely overlooked Stephen King adaption , one of the best imo) and the huge success Blade.

Forgot the Dixie Dregs!! Eclectic prog at its finest. For two of their albums, “Unsung Heroes” and “Industry Standard”, they shortened their name to The Dregs, before they broke up the first time.
Some of Steve Howe’s solo works are all-instrumental, such as “Turbulence” and “Quantum Guitar.” If you like Jade Warrior, “Blue Star” by Gurumander and Friends is highly recommended. It was marketed more as a New Age album but don’t let that fool you. Amazing space guitar, Pink Floyd fans might like it too. Readily available thru Amazon, BTW. |

Might have mentioned this one before, but TRENT REZNOR's
THE GIRL WITH THE DRAGON TATTOO soundtrack is brilliant along with his infamous GHOSTS album. Trent and Atticus Ross work so well together. They create Dark, moody music that makes you think. :) |

I'd also add the 1st Shadowfax album, Watercourse Way (though 1 song does have minimal vocals).

I'd also recommend SFF's 2nd album "Sunburst" ('77). Along with "Symphonic Pictures" they make a great pair.

In the 90's I bought a great 2CD set which included Symphonic Pictures, Sunburst, Ticket to Everywhere and a couple live bonus tracks...don't know if it's still available.

Goblin--Back To The Goblin (2005.)
Incredible instrumental album filled with beautiful crescendo, arpeggios and haunting bass lines by Fabio Pignatelli. :) Look out for tracks like Japanese Air, Dlen Dlon and Lost In The Universe. Beautiful album. |

Chinese Beard - Shades of Tomorrow
Gifts From Enola (any album by them)
Pomegranate Tiger (if you care for some great prog metal)
Talc
The Inner Road - Ascension
SoulenginE - Mind Colours (two shorter songs on the album have vocals, but the vocals are decent and everything else is instrumental
The Ocean - Pelegial (well there is two versions of the album, one with vocals and an instrumental version. I only listen to the instrumental version because I just don't like the death metal vocals)
Tale of Diffusion - Adventures of Madnorious (The Bird)
