Thanks for the link...  Have not managed to get this album yet

for what it worth.. that album has bumrushed itself into my hypothetical 10 favorite modern prog albums list if I ever decided to make one. What a fabulous album.. do yourself a favor and make it a point to get it.

The album closer on that most certainly has made my top 5 modern prog song list.... again.... if I ever decided to make one haha

Thanks for the link...  Have not managed to get this album yet,  but managed to get Revere Reach and Briney Hooves.. 

His piano work sounds really good...  Not sure what the Cardiacs sound like,  do not own any of their albums.
