Collage and Satellite

Other than the fact that I think Moonshine is one of the best albums ever, I agree with you about "Evening Games".  It's the only one that comes close, thanks to the incredible sadness the oozes through the title cut, Beautiful World, and Evening Overture.

I was very disappointed with Into the Night, and I've only listened to Nostalgia once. but I don't get the feeling it will be giving Street or Evening any competition.  They seems to be out of inspiration.

So if it is a highlight, it's a disputed highlight.    That's true, 'Moonshine' is not the only prog album coming out of Poland that deserves the attention of the prog community. However, in the field of neo-prog, it's probably the best album Poland ever delivered. Regarding the comparison with other prog bands but in different style, I would not say they are "much better" but different, as one cannot compare two bands playing a completely different music, even if belonging to the same category. Other major polish prog records include : - Czesław Niemen's 'Enigmatic' - Marek Grechuta's 'Magia obłoków' - Skaldowie's 'Krywań, Krywań' - Breakout's '70 a' - Klan's 'Mrówisko' - Niebiesko Czarni's 'Naga (rock-opera)' - SBB's 'Ze słowem biegnę do Ciebie''   And even today you can count with other marvellous bands : Riverside (progmetal), Mindfields (retro/sympho-prog), Annalist (neo but evolved towards more trip-hop horizons), Gargantua (RIO/avant-prog), Indukti (progmetal, influenced by King Crimson and Tool), Hipgnosis (art-rock/ambient, with female vocals), Moonrise (neo-prog), Iluzjon (prog-rock)...

Moreover, if you check the other reknown prog sites : NGEPR and babyblaue, you will find them among other prog artists/bands. On GEPR, Polish fans even wrote a bio for Grechuta and Skaldowie. Did you listen to Niemen's Enigmatic, Aerolit, Katharsis or Ode to Venus ? Pozdrawiam
