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

RF is terrible underrated, in the about 40 years I have known about him, have hardly seen anything about him outside strictly prog circles, compared to almost anyone in (Rock) music, he is in the shades.
Prog is whatevey you want it to be. So dont diss other peoples prog, and they wont diss yours

This question is a nonsense for me.


Indeed, in fact I would say he is arguably underated. I suspect many young folk listen to music that he has greatly influenced without even knowing who he was. I suspect this may have also been the case in the later half of the 70's. His name pops up all over the place; in relation to all manner of artists including Daryl Hall, David Bowie, The Orb, Future Sound of London..That pr!ck Kanye West even sampled KC.
Ultimately bored by endless ecstasy!
