RF, how do you like this? Pat knows that it's next on my IZZ list, but have a lot in front of it (especially now since I'm interested in BJH).

Music has always been a matter of energy to me. On some nights I believe that a car with the needle on empty can run 50 more miles if you have the right music very loud on the radio. Hunter S Thompson

I have no complaints with it.  Personally I think Ampersand Volume 1 is as good as the rest, but when I like a band I am pretty easy to please.  I wouldn't mind an Ampersand Volume 2.
 
And by the way, it appears that E-Dub and I will be both delving further into the Barclay James Harvest discography.  At first blush, they definitely seem to sound like my kind of band.

Scott, I've tried getting into bands that others consider essential to the genre, but they've fallen flat. I wasn't expecting much with BJH; however, that Once Again album just blew me away. I'm already over my CD spending budget and am fighting like crazy not to order anything else. Damn budget!

All that I have heard is that live Legacy CD that I was playing yesterday, and although it is kind of a pseudo-BJH as it appears that there are at least two versions touring as BJH, I enjoyed it enough that I want to explore them further.  I'll probably see what I can find at the local brick and mortar store before I hit the internet but I will probably try at first with the recommendations that were given here and in the English Battle thread.
 
Edit:  And with the way the market is going, you might as well spend it all on CDs because at least you'll have something for your efforts. WinkCry

Keeping in mind that I like pop-Yes, and I like Jon Anderson's voice, this is good; not very good, great, or a masterpiece, but good.  I probably wouldn't recommend it to anybody who hates pop-Yes though.  My favorite from him is actually In the City of Angels.  Although Olias and Song of Seven would probably be the only two that are remotely prog.

Not enormously. I think it's an album you either get or you don't. Doesn't click for me.

It's probably kind of a sacrilege thing to say (but I do that a lot on here so what else is new), but when it comes to Jethro Tull, I'm kind of happy with their greatest hits albums.  That is not to say that there aren't some good songs that weren't radio hits, but I just seem to prefer their radio hits.  Of course, that means that PA's number 1 all-time album isn't even in my top 100.  Shocked
