I would honestly consider Just a Collection of Antiques and Curios my favorite of the Strawbs earlier albums. A gem and a personal favorite of mine from the album, The Antique Suite, has also appeared on the Witchwood Media release Recollection (2006). I would be interested to hear the opinions of my fellow proggers on which mix they prefer and why.  ------------- As the dust settles, see our dreams, all coming true, it depends on you... |

| I haven't heard Recollection at all. I suppose I should, given that it includes Wakeman playing in more songs that were originally on the first album, prior to his joining. |

The acoustic version of the song on 'Painted Sky' is probably my all-time favorite Strawbs moment. ------------- |

 Painted may not be as strong overall as Baroque but imo a definitely essential one nonetheless. ------------- |

Hero and Heroine and Grave New World will always be my 2 favorites though all lp's From the Witchwood through to Ghosts are all great imo...I even like the very first 2....but Curios is a very good album also. ------------- One does nothing yet nothing is left undone. Haquin |
