Good stuff AFTER Big Generator....hmmm,....
 
 
            .......nothing yet.......
 
                      ......wait, no................
 
                           ............well, maybe........no............
 
Actually, I enjoyed Magnification but, man, they really ought to sit down and try to write a bit together as a BAND.

I like to feel the suspense when you're certain you know I am there.....

TALK: The Calling; Endless Dream.
KEYSTUDIO: That, that is; Mind Drive
OPEN YOUR EYES: New State Of Mind (but it's not that good really)
THE LADDER: Homeworld, New Languages.
MAGNIFICATION: Give love each day; Dreamtime.

Really after Big G I would only listen to
 
- Magnification
- In The presence Of
- Mind Drive
 
IMO Talk, Ladder, Open Your Eyes, Are really bad albums

The stuff on KTA I and KTA II... you can skip the rest (though I haven't heard Magnification yet).

Nobody seems to have mentioned the dreaded Onion, sorry Union but there are 1 or 2 good tracks on it e.g.  I Would Have Waited Forever and Miracle of Life.

I agree about those two tracks. I liked 'Shock to the System' and 'Lift me up' when I first heard that album (about 13 years ago!!) But when I played it a while back, it didn't have quite the same impact.

Oh, Yes, I forgot Union. I really enjoy some of the tracks by ABWH like Shock To The System, Masquerade, Silent Talking and the Squire/Sherwood song, The More We Live-Let Go. But there are several bad tracks also.
 
The tracks performed by Trevor Rabin and co. have very good instrumental beginnings (i.e. Miracle Of Life, Lift Me Up) but they end  being boring AOR songs IMO.

UNION----The Miracle of Life, Masquerade; Silent Talking. (Masquerade was awarded a grammy, wasn't it?, or was it another prize I'm not sure).
 
 TALK....Endless Dream; The Calling
 
KTA2----- Mind Drive; Footprints
 
OPEN YOUR EYES------ A New State of Mind; The Solution
 
THE LADDER-------- Homeworld
 
MAGNIFICATION---- Magnification;In the Presence of; Spirit of Survival; Can you Imagine?

I like Tormato, so shoot me! Every person in the world can't think the same.

In my opinion, the two best studio albums they have released since Big Genorator are Key Studio, and Magnification. Both albums have some very good music on them. The music is different from the 70's material, but still very good for the most part. I find myself listening to those two albums fairly often in this day and age.

Songs on Keystudio are all pretty good. Footprints, Mind Drive and That, that is are especially great.

"dont go" in magnifcation is good too.

With this list you can't go wrong:

 

Homeworld (The Ladder) - The Ladder (this is their best song since Close to the Edge)

The Messenger - The Ladder

New Languages - The Ladder

It Will Be a good day - The Ladder

Magnification - Magnification

That, that is - Keystudios or Keys to Ascension 1

Mind Drive - Keystudios or Key to Ascension 2

Foot Prints - Keystudios or Keys to Ascension 2

Children of Light- Keystudios or Keys to Ascension 2

 

Basically get The Ladder or Keystudios and you’re set.
