I'd say, it's quite obvious for the letter "V" as well, even not everybody of course are fond of at least one VdGG album. 

But that doesn't make much difference. Smile

To become member of this very special club, please tell which Eclectic Prog albums you're fond of.
Another rule is that particularly Honourable Members will be appointed depending on appreciation of 
The Big Three of Eclectic Prog, and that means King Crimson, Van der Graaf Generator and Gentle Giant.

I'm fond of:

Budka Suflera  (PL)  -  Cien Wielkiej Gory   (1975)

Catapilla  (UK)  -  Catapilla   (1971) 

Ciccada  (GR)  -  A Child in the Mirror  (2010)

Djam Karet  (US)  -  Reflections From The Firepool  (1989) 

Gentle Giant  (UK)  -  Acquiring the Taste  (1971) 

Gordian Knot  (US)  -  Gordian Knot  (1998) 

Marek Grechuta & Anawa  (PL)  -  Korowód   (1971)

Steve Hackett  (UK)  -  Voyage of the Acolyte   (1975)

King Crimson  (UK)  -  ITCOTCK, Larks’ Tongues, Red  ('69,70's)

Manfred Mann's Earth Band  (UK)  -  Solar Fire  (1974)

Nemo  (F)  -  Prelude a la Ruine  (2004)  

Czeslaw Niemen  (PL)  -  Enigmatic, Niemen Aerolit, Katharsis (´'69,70's)

SBB  (PL)  -  2: Nowy Horyzont, Welcome  (70's)

Sheshet  (Israel)  -  Sheshet  (1977)

Skaldowie  (PL)  -  Krywań Krywań  (1972)

Taal  (F)  -  Skymind   (2002)  

Terreno Baldio  (BRA)  -  Terreno Baldio  (1976)

Van der Graaf Generator  (UK)  -  H to He, Godbluff, Still Life (70's)


not on PA, but a fine album and maybe closest to Eclectic Prog

- even much influenced by Metal (like Skymind though):

Aesma Daeva  (USA)  -  The Eros of Frigid Beauty  (2001)


I hope you'll enjoy yourself and may Eclectic Prog be with you! Tongue
