I listed Moody Blues, Procol, Floyd, etc earlier but since they were British bands I never really considered them 'foreign' being an English speaking American.....and I suppose the first 'European' or 'non English' band I bought was Triumvirat's Illusion on a Double Dimple in 1973. ...or PFM's Photos of Ghosts in 1973.

I don't really like any aussie music apart from a few tunes. I don't own any Aussie music. I like Split Enz but they are from New Zealand.

All I like is prog related bands beginning late 60's/early 70's. Their music from 1968 - 83 has the composition and sound which will never be beaten. Perfect blend of jazz, classical, folk and rock.

They were the 4 first albums of Gentle Giant. Realy worth it. ^_^
My father had a huge prog rock collection before, but I actually bought them with my own money.

Cheating really as I didn't buy it. I taped it and helped to kill music no doubt. Ricochet: TD

Considering that I was born and grew up in Namibia, 99,99% of my collection is foreign.

The first foreign album I got must have been one of the grunge Seattle bands in 91' probably Soundgarden or Nirvana.
Foreign language (if I don't consider English to be foreign) must be something Italian, probably Per Un Amico or Maxophone.

Moving Pictures by Rush back in 2007 is the first I can remember. But I know I had a copy of Dark Side of the Moon before that.
But if we're talking about albums in a foreign language, that honor belongs to PFM's Storia di un minuto, which I bough back in the fall of 2012.

Amon Duul II: Tanz der Lemmings, when I was about 14 - blew my mind....!
Followed closely by Can: Future Days
And I never liked commercial music after that...

Hi,
Sorry ... not foreign to me, because in Brasil we hear a lot of bands, and artists, and later I heard even more in America.
In the end, this was all about how attentive you were to what was out there, and I already knew that music LIVED around the world, even though no one knew it.
It did help that the midwest was lively in music, though my "imports" time did not start happening until we reached California, though I already had Stones, Beatles, Kinks, ELP, Procol Harum and many other things in my collection.
Time never was when music was not progressive! We're too damn regressive to be able to realize that and appreciate one of the most beautiful conditions of the human spirit!

Music is not just for listening ... it is for LIVING ... you got to feel it to know what's it about! Not being told!
