So - just a great album.

I'm a fan of the It Bites album.
I am currently digging:

Hawkwind, Rare Bird, Gong, Tangerine Dream, Khan, Iron Butterfly, and all things canterbury and hard-psych. I also love jazz!

Please drop me a message with album suggestions.

Underwater Sunlight

Song Of The Whale (both parts) is one of the best peices of music Tangerine Dream ever recorded..and features some lovely piano and guitar. Far removed from 'classic TD' but I love it.

Anderson, Laurie Home of the Brave

Since a few people like Shub Niggurath, here's another piece of fantastic Zehul that goes along perfectly with it.

Only one short EP from 1986

Queensr˙che Rage for Order
When he rides, my fears subside.
For darkness turns once more to light.
Through the skies, his white horse flies.
To find a land beyond the night.

Good to see somebody else appreciates Wendy Carlos' Beauty in the Beast. Fantastic album, absolutely brilliant.   
The world of sound is certainly capable of infinite variety and, were our sense developed, of infinite extensions. -- George Santayana, "The Sense of Beauty"

Voted for David Sylvian "Gone to Earth" even though Peter Gabriel "So" probably should have got my vote. But everyone's voting for PG and DS is way underrated.
