Which other of their albums would you recommend the most?
 
I think I'm gonna give Shadowdance a wake up from the dusty shelf Tongue

It's got Watercourse Way, which is one of the mellower tracks from the original album redone.
Released date are often when it it impacted you but recorded dates are when it really happened...

Definitely put that one on the top of your must listen to list.  It will blow you away. I was a big advocate  for their addition here.  That album was exhibit number one.

Watercourse Way is one of those obscure prog albums from the '70's that more people should get to know.

They went off the radar screen but then resurfaced on the Windham Hill label.  Did albums that were more in the new age vein but still really good mellow music.  Dreams Of Children was a return to more prog.

You managed to hit me up with one I haven't heard or have.  I'm Embarrassed.
 
LOLnonono i havent heard Watercourse Way yet!!! so thats somethin for me to really check out..........i've got all their Windham Hill output and some of the later stuff but The Odd Get Even is my only album of theirs from the 90s period

Shadowfax was Gandalf's horse! Since he's not around anymore, Gandalf has nothing better to do than make a bunch of silly polls.
