Steve Hackett "Out of the Tunnels mouth". Also the Mike Oldfield 2010 remix of Hergest Ridge. Forget  Mike's Ommadawn 2010 remix. That one was botched IMO.

Haken - Aquarius is my latest love.
There's a point where "avant-garde" and "experimental" becomes "terrible" and "pointless,"

Dang, the year is already half over and I only have three 2010's:
Beck, Jeff    Emotion & Commotion
Umphrey's McGee    Summer Sampler 2010
Mclachlan, Sarah    Laws Of Illusion
And one was a freebie (Summer Sampler).
Released date are often when it it impacted you but recorded dates are when it really happened...

I honestly haven't kept up with this years music very well at all, but my favourite from what I've heard is X by Spock's Beard.
