Help Finding Album

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   Hey everyone,

New guy to this forum but I've used the site for a few years now; been a prog fan for a few years longer.

I've listened to most of the "classics" and have moved on to several cool one-shot 70s bands I've really enjoyed.

My point for this post is that I listened to a couple songs by this one band online, and I really enjoyed it.  Problem is I cannot for the life of me remember what the group's name was, or the album's name.  My computer's history/cookies got erased as well, and so I can't use that to simply find it again.

The music itself was fairly symphonic, and didn't really have a particular trait that stood out.  What I remember best actually was the album cover's appearance - it was a youtube video.

The cover was a picture of some sort of eagle/dragon creature soaring to the right in the foreground of the drawing.  It was leaving some kind of rainbow-trail behind it in an arc.  The background looked like some sort of desert, and it was mostly in shades of yellow.

I know it's a rather strange request but if I can get any help remembering what this group/album was, I'd really appreciate it.  Thanks for any sort of help anyone could give me.

	Not much to go on, but here are a few album covers that sort of meet that description: Edited by ClemofNazareth - December 21 2011 at 16:33

	^ My initial thought was Uriah Heep's Firefly - but that's not it.
	What?

	My first thought was Glass Hammer also but I couldn't find anything with a rainbow coming out of a bird's butt.
