Please, opinions, I haven't heard any (except Abacab, which almost sucks, but has a few decent songs and as a pop-rock album is good actually)... I want to know what you think. -------------

Why the hell did you waste money on those godawful late Genesis albums? Dowsing Anemone gets my vote. ------------- http://www.last.fm/user/ocellatedgod" rel="nofollow - last.fm |

I would have voted for the last option, but you bought Wild Orchids - my vote goes for this album.

I haven't heard everyone on the list, but, of those I have heard, Wild Orchids is the best by a mile. You are in for a treat with that one! (As long as you like subtle humour and orchestral mellowness, mixed in with some superb guitar playing!)

I chose Angra from your list because the albumyou mentioned is excellent indeed. Great choice for In the Woods - Omnio.
Let's see what else is there: even 1981-1991 Genesis period has a lot of good and very good songs. As far as Peter Gabriel is concerned, well he's always a great choice.
Labyrinth - Son of Thunder - pretty good, but I've heard better from them; the album is called Return to the Heaven Denied if i remember right.
GPS - can't find this album anywhere, shops or even for downloading. Being a fan of Payne era Asia fan, I am curious and hope I'll find it somehow.
Muse - Black Holes and Revelation - an excellent purchase.
Still haven't heard the entire Steve Hackett album you mentioned, just a few songs
 , it sounded pretty good. Well, I admit I'm not a big fan of Hackett's solo stuff yet. |

given your choice of Cds, I've gone for the Real Estate option... ------------- 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 |
