I stand with Roger Waters, I stand with Joan Baez, I stand with Victor Jara, I stand with Woody Guthrie. Music is revolution

Hackett gets my vote from this list. The bourgeoisie has surrounded the large cylindrical hulls of my pressurized vermifilter system.

^ Psych is a very significant component of his music overall Overall I'd think Crossover for the pop qualities. A very PA applicable album is, I think Music For Insomniacs which is Progressive Electronic. Albums like Witchahzel and Kill the Wolf are sort of psych pop and rock meet folk. The Blue Elephant would be best for Psych here perhaps. Various others albums are on the psych pop side. Crossover or Psych... I've been waiting for one more album from him that really solidifies his interest in Prog.

Mr Rick Wakeman. That version of Six Wives includes the track Tudor Rock (for Henry VIII specifically) that was originally intended for the album but the record company wanted to keep it cleaner and just concentrate on the wives. On the DVD you also get the wonderful actor Brian Blessed introducing each track. Highly recommended if you like Rick.
