Sorry, late getting back here! Those letters stand for Il Fantastico Viaggio del Bagarozzo Mark by Goblin! And nobody refers to it by anything other than its name.  |

Return to the Centre of the Earth is also worth having, if you like his orchestral stuff. And Out There is also a wonderful album (a sort of second part to No Earthly Connection). And then, his Retro albums also have some great songs. |

So far, I think there's no album from him (at least studio), that I regret having bought, and I do have some post-70's albums... but I guess I just chose them well. For me, King Arthur is my favourite, then perhaps 6 Wives, then Criminal Record... and then, Journey to the Centre of the Earth is also great. |

I'm planning to review Alan White's "Ramshackled" album a week from today, if all goes to plan.

I had to go back to my poll to see what "FOOW" stood for, but at least I'm not like a fish out of water now, because when I first arrived here back in September I didn't know what on earth "ITCOTCK", "VDGG" or "CTTE" stood for, but I do now.

This Wakeman devotee voted for FOOW, because it really is the *best* debut in the poll. Six Wives is second, though!

I voted Fish Out of Water. The only album I still listen to out of the bunch.
I know it's not "prog," but Alan White's Ramshackled is actually a pretty decent album--if you can get past your prog expectations. I used to play it quite a lot in college--especially the side with "Darkness" with its cool hook and awesome trumpet work. "Crash" Craddock, Peter Kirtley, and Colin Gibson were real pros.

I agree. Rick Wakeman's box set is one of my favourites too and I have A LOT of box sets. Steve Hackett's box set is very good too. I think the dodgiest box set I've ever bought was by T. Rex, because there were four very early Tyrannosaurus Rex Psych-Folk albums that I didn't like at all and only one Glam Rock album by T. Rex that I really did like.

That's actually a great box set , usually there's one dodgy one but all are good I also like the Retro albums and even spent a bit of time reviewing them. The best later release RW album (by common consensus) is Out There. That's a very solid album indeed.

I don't know them all, and those I know are all far from perfect (not a fan of Fish Out Of Water as much as others seem to love that one). I will vote for the Patrick Moraz album, but I'm not sure if I'd even give that one 4 stars, if none of the others. He at least deserves a vote.

I'd put their debut albums in this order:-
1. Chris Squire 2. Jon Anderson 3. Rick Wakeman 4. Steve Howe I don't know about the other five debuts because I haven't heard them yet.
