my current wish list

   Do not take Arena, unless you win the lotery.
The same applies for Spock's Beard or Neal Morse.
The Flower Kings is not my cup of tea as well.
I would say:

Genisis - The lamb (a must have)
IQ - The Wake  (if you like neo prog)
VDGG - Godbluff (much more accessible than Pawn Hearts)
The Mars Volta - DeLoused
Pendragon (for the smooth mood)
Something of KC
Nice day filling

	yes I have all the Genesis Gabriel era albums except "The Lamb", and I have a very dissapointing "Frances the Mute" and I have a very good Marillion collection. And V by Spock's Beard. Thanks to all I know I'm on the right track now that I see you all regard these wants as masterpieces. I do like Neo-prog, Marillion is one of my all time favorite bands. Thanks to all who mentioned!

	Good list! Fish, Opeth and Magma are not my cup of tea so can't really comment on them. The rest looks pretty good, my personal favourites would be the Yes ones. Masquerade Overture is a favourite at the moment, you might also want to consider IQ's "Dark Matter" which is their best one imo. Also Glass Hammer's new one, The Inconsolable Secret" I think is better than Lex Rex.

	I had such kind of list too..it is almost fulfilled now ARENA - I'd recommend you the two first records &,maybe,the last one.I dislike Visitor & Contagion,thet're sound too AORic for me PINKs,ELP,GENESIS,VAN DER GRAAF,CRIMSON & GIANT - you have mentioned the very best albums of them.A perfect choise !I'd like to recommend you also GENESIS's 70-73 works & MARILLION's 82-85(or you alresdy have them all?)As for IQ,that's one of my favouritest groups ever,The Wake & Dark Matter are my favor CDs of them.And The Seventh House is also an excellent choise. OPETH - Ileke the first two from all,they're dark & complex.Others are more easy-to-listen-to,but less interesting. IMHO Good luck in Prog World!

	Arena: Honestly I don't like most Neo Prog neither most supergroups, and they fit in both categories. ELP: You have chosen the best ELP albums, I would start with Trilogy or BSS. Genesis: The Lamb is a masterpiece, but hard to get into it. Gentle Giant: Not my cup of tea, but they really talented, I would go with Octopus, if you jhaven't heard them, I must warn you they are very hard to get into. Glass Hammer: Go with Lex Rex. Jethro Tull: They are a very solid band, almost any album is great, by short would go with Heavy Horses. Mike Oldfield: Tubular Bells is a must have. Pendragon: Go with Masquerade Overture, you won't regret. Pink Floyd: Both are great, but I like DSOTM more. Rick Wakeman: You marked his best trilogy, I like Myths.. more but I believe Six Wives is preferred by most people. Spock's Beard: Probably Snow, but again not my cup of tea. VDGG: Pawn Hearts Yes: From your list Relayer, no doubts. Can't help you more, the rest is only a matter of choice and personal taste. Iván Edited by ivan_2068
