The question you got to ask yourself, punk, is; "Is First utterance the best album of all?" Well, punk, it is. So yes, you should buy it. Next question!

(Vad gick den på, förresten? Och var hittade du den?)

Everyone knows the best album of all is Art Zoyd's Symphonie pour le Jour Où Brûleront les Cités.

Gong: Flying teapot* Jethro tull: Pasion play, Minstrel in the gallery Amon duul II: Tanz der lemminge + the ones from the other list i havent bought yet ofcourse.

You've listed many albums that I own and love... "Absent Lovers" is a great live album, the two Rush CDs are among their best ever, and "Octopus" and "The Snow Goose", though completely different from each other, are real masterpieces of 'classic' Seventies prog.

However, what really impressed me in your 'to buy' list are the three wonderful BOC albums... I was listening to "Cultosaurus" this morning, in particular to one of their proggiest tracks ever, "Monsters". I'd love to add them, but I don't want to add fuel to the fire of controversy.

I am just dying to get any kind of copy of FM's 2nd & 3rd albums "surveillance" & "headroom" but I can't find them, they were never released on CD
