Ha-ha. Fans of Vangelis, Oldfield and Enid (yuck, thats where the smell is coming from) will probably love both Instructions for Angels and the stunning The Odyssey. Stars End & Nurses Songs With Elephants are more avantgarde. The latter album's got the amazing track Some Bright Stars for Queen's College, a composition for 80 college girls' voices and 27 plastic pipe twirlers. Here it to believe it! That's the four albums I got by him. All so perfectly progarchives-material, its really nothing to discuss. Add!

| I'd support it (even though his work does not appeal to me). Any thoughts on the appropriate sub-genre? |

| I've seen his albums around and am surprised he's not here considering his pedigree with Oldfield etc., but if he's in the Vangelis, Oldfield and Enid mould- none of whom I have much time for, too twee and laid back for my taste- I think I'd pass. |

Early Vangelis, and forget that I mentioned The Enid. ------------- Over land and under ashes In the sunlight, see - it flashes Find a fly and eat his eye But don't believe in me Don't believe in me Don't believe in me |

only ever heard Star's End and its follow-up.
Sounds RIO or Avant-prog to me.
But I don't know if this is representative of his career. ------------- let's just stay above the moral melee prefer the sink to the gutter keep our sand-castle virtues content to be a doer as well as a thinker, prefer lifting our pen rather than un-sheath our sword |
