The album that turned me off the Floyd until Dark Side came along and gained my interest once again.

Prog?

I'm just playing the Heroes Symphony, which isn't really a symphony. Six mood pieces inspired by the Bowie/Eno album. Think I'm onto my fourth play now, while more is revealed each time it is more pleasant/interesting than as gripping as Glass can be. Good to read to.

Very French. Latest release 50 years after formation. Not bad, in fact there’s something good going on but tbh the vocals are not inspiring me to seek out more from their extensive catalogue.

I’ll take a recommendation if there are any fans out there....

All Traps on Earth - A Drop Of Light

Offshoot from renowned Swedish prog band Anglagard, this is a debut album released recently.

I’ve never quite got the huge love for Anglagard in prog circles - it’s just a bit too noodly for me. But that was how I felt about Genesis when I 1st heard them in mid 70s....

This album left exactly the same feeling on 1st play. I really must give it (and Anglagard) more time to bed in with me.

US low psych rock band from the late 70s who were new to me on the psych compilation album I posted up the other day. The track “April 15th” made me want more.

This album has to be the shortest I’ve ever come across, less than 30mins in length! But it is rather good, standing up well to its 50 years life on this planet.

Is that the one where you hear a piano being destroyed on one track? Good stuff.

Seeing this reminded me that I had it somewhere, had to dig it out but finally found it to play - thanks for the reminder.

I like their stuff of around 73 to 76, not so sure about later incarnations though.
