| Hello, I'm roedent. My prog collection isn't exactly that big. At the moment, it only consists of Pink Floyd (all their 70s albums) but I hope to get more stuff soon, particularly by Dream Theater. My purpose here is to enjoy all your random musings and opinions and hopefully contribute some of my own. |

I recommend you check out Nektar, Yes and Porcupine Tree, they might give you an expanding sense, and as your taste is fairly small, I recommend the big six (four without Yes and Pink Floyd) prog bands: Jethro Tull, King Crimson, Genesis, and Emerson, Lake & Palmer. ------------- http://www.formspring.me/Aragorn224" rel="nofollow - Trendsetter win!

I literally 'discovered' Porcupine Tree yesterday. Pretty good stuff so far. Looking forward to hearing their new album, not least for its epic 55-minute title track. Oh yeah!

That is the only reason I want to hear the album, excluding the fact that they're a great band, but what can I say, my preferences for vinyls, even if I have them on CD, are that the cover must rock, and at least 1 track longer than 10 minutes, but you know, I also get albums with tracks below 10 minutes, but the cover must be rocking. ------------- http://www.formspring.me/Aragorn224" rel="nofollow - Trendsetter win!
