   oh no Jim.. it ain't like I'm saying Banco are like Genesis... Dull.. or f**king Camel.  Great band.. great albums.. but yeah.. they do lack something each of the other 5 had that set them apart for me.

I'll have to think that over Jim... I'll get back to you. Perhaps after a few strong ones later this evening to loosen up the mud in my brain!

	For me the first Banco is the Sex Pistols Meeting La Callas.

	Really? Can you articulate anything about them that bothers you? I'm always curious about why people don't dig Banco as much as.....say....PFM and Orme I suppose in some ways they are so textbook RPI that maybe they lack certain personality quirks that otherwise endear us to our favorite groups? (I don't know, I'm half in the bag)

	I think Raff is much more into Darwin and Libero albums... where as the Debut is really the only one of the 3 (or any of their albums) I consistently re-relisten to. To be perfectly honest.. great band as they are.. they would likely be at the bottom for me of the RPI big 6 in terms of pure enjoyment

	Mickster, what is your opinion (and Raffs) of Banco's first three....I can't recall....those would seem to be formidable desert island choices. QVL, Cervello, and Metamorfosi are also considerations.

	if I could have stretched my list of flammable exceptions to saving 4 albums I would have definitely had that first PFM album.. I suppose I could included the time I ran a 78' Firebird into a tree at 85 and it didn't explode ... or kill me as an exception Edited by micky - October 22 2016 at 15:08

	Oh geez that's a tough one. Any other day of the week and it could be one of the QVL albums, or L'isola di Niente, or Palepoli, or maybe Cherry Five, but going with my gut, I'll pick this bad boy:
