I only know the Cybotron album. When I don't know anything about the music, I think the Italian titles grab my attention the most. Labirinto di Specchi it is.

Only familiar with
Tasavallan Presidentti - Lambertland. From the list I would want to hear Phoenix and Polyphony.

Lambertland is really good as far as I remember. I also have heard Phoenix but can't remember it too well. The others are unknow to me, unfortunately.

One of the better recent RPI albums I have heard.

Phoenix is great Prog Folk from '70s Romania.

Polyphony was an American band who released one album in 1971.

The Phoenix is the only one I have. Very enjoyable album - the one before (I forget the name) is also good, though less "proggy". Of those I haven't heard I'd pick Tasavallan Presidentti. I always seem to like Finnish bands.

^^ Thanks for the videos. While I don't get into much folk, Phoenix has an interesting sound.
I really enjoyed Polyphony.

I'm listening to the full album right now, great stuff!
It has some Post-Rock influences, I guess that's why you like it so much

A better question is Who pays those prices?
Visit Popsike sometime and see how much people pay for vinyl they've won on eBay.

True. I visited that site a few weeks ago and asked myself that same question.
