Le Orme - Felona E Serona |
Since I´ve just read your list I´ve realized Le Orme´s artwork
in Uommo di pezza it is very similar to Cathedral´s (the doom
metal band) some albums artwort. Check out.
The difference is that Le Orme were out there a lot of time before.

I'll probably set up a list later, but for the moment I'd like to mention the early Anthony Phillips albums,
especially 'The Geese and the Ghost' and 'Wise after the Event'.
