I haven't heard those two Anathema albums you mentioned - I've only listened to the albums on their 3-CD box set:- Judgement; A Fine Day to Exit; & A Natural Disaster.

They are all fine albums, and yes, Judgement probably shades the other two in overall quality.. Smile

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

I was using Wikipedia's album listings, mostly, where For All We Shared was listed as a 1998 album. Smile

You've got me thinking now, because I actually remember them releasing the album during that winter, but can't remember whether it was Dec 98 or Jan 99? Geek

Just got a copy of Flower Power, so it is high on my list right now and got the vote. Hackett's Darktown is a close second. Mention also goes out to Yes, Spock's Beard (my first by them), and The Moody Blues.

The world of sound is certainly capable of infinite variety and, were our sense developed, of infinite extensions. -- George Santayana, "The Sense of Beauty"

2 incredible albums here, Rajaz and Spirit of Autumn Past.

I'll go with York's finest, Mostly Autumn, because the section from Evergreen to Blakey Ridge is prog folk perfection.

A TVR is not a car. It's a way of life.

Anekdoten - From Within

Friedrich Nietzsche: "Without music, life would be a mistake."

Music Is Live

Two people are better off than one, for they can help each other succeed.

Keep Calm And Listen To The Music…

Welcome to the middle of the film.

Polls Apart:- A multi-genre and multi-national round-up of albums I only discovered the day before posting this poll, some of which are poles apart from the music I normally listen to. Smile

1999: Like Wendy - Rainchild (Neo Prog • Netherlands) - https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL1aVd6kmDWWkXZTB3pikoyO6ayL2AW1AO

1999: Solaris - Nostradamus Book of Prophecies (Symphonic Prog • Hungary) - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ONVCDE1maec

I'm taking a break from polling for awhile, but I'll be back in September (when it'll be Mostly Autumn) with the first batch of 25 prog albums from the Turn of the Century. Smile
