We have 15 albums from 15 different sub-genres all coming in at 51st place. One vote. I could vote for over a half dozen of these but nothing stands out. I'm leaning towards that Aerolit album though. I might have to play that one later. ------------- "The wind is slowly tearing her apart" "Sad Rain" ANEKDOTEN |

Amarok ------------- Music has always been a matter of energy to me. On some nights I believe that a car with the needle on empty can run 50 more miles if you have the right music very loud on the radio. Hunter S Thompson |

Mike Oldfield was really flying the flag for out there mad as hell prog rock (sort of). I played Amarok a lot when it came out but not so much now. It was 1990 and there was chuff all else though

Wow, what a tough choice. I got to go with Echolyn by a smidgen over Shadow Gallery, Clepsydra , and Amoeba Split. A shout out to Koenji Hyakkei, Miles Davis, and Alusa Fallax. I adore their albums too. |

This might be the only cd I bought where I had the choice of 3 album covers. Weird. They offered one with an octopus, a turkey or a fish. All very unattractive by the way. Good music though. I got the turkey. ------------- "The wind is slowly tearing her apart" "Sad Rain" ANEKDOTEN |

A two horse race. I could have voted for this one. This is a top three or four by them. They have released many quality albums. ------------- "The wind is slowly tearing her apart" "Sad Rain" ANEKDOTEN |

And this is the other horse in this two horse race. Thanks Jared! What a comeback album for Oldfield, rivalling his stuff from the first half of the seventies. This one is different. ------------- "The wind is slowly tearing her apart" "Sad Rain" ANEKDOTEN |

I have the remastered version that came in the box set and it has all three of them pictured on the cover. I wonder what the reasoning behind the different covers is? ------------- ---------- i'm shopping for a new oil-cured sinus bag that's a happy bag of lettuce this car smells like cartilage nothing beats a good video about fractions |

I've always wondered, "Why three different covers?" I got the fish. |

There was a time on this site that Koenji Hyakkei were really popular. An avant band that were held in high esteem. ------------- "The wind is slowly tearing her apart" "Sad Rain" ANEKDOTEN |
