I need to check this one out; I know some of their later stuff and it's great indeed.

One side effect of this poll is that I'm listening again to my Ozric Tentacles after quite some time. I didn't really have on my radar how good Erpland and Pungent actually are. Great stuff, I don't think I enjoyed them as much when I got them long time ago.

I think I have at least one of those albums lying around somewhere. I haven't paid them enough attention admittedly but will try and dig whatever I have out later (I'm not very organised!).

cool..  Midsummer Night's Dream is excellent, Winter's Tale is almost as good.  Considering the time period, they don't get enough credit for playing even a small part in the prog revival.  But you gotta like your prog folk to get into them

I have Mares Nest listed as 1992 (the DVD, the album even 1995) and the Cassiber album as 1988. I'm not saying you're wrong, I just don't know better than what PA says. (Ah, it seems Mares Nest was recorded in 1990.)

Maybe for prog but what was coming out of Seattle around '90 and what would come out in the next few years was anything but bad.

I go off my list on Gnosis which isn't necessarily all that reliable, discogs has Cassiber as 1990 , all using has it as 1988, RYM as 1991, anyway I like the album. Gnosis does all the live albums as year recorded.

maybe lesser? Smile

Edit:
Then, I saw in the thread that you thought about it , as well.

Edit 2:
And then I saw, you could write a lot - you're still suprising me, and I guess you can keep on doing that.
