Art Zoyd - Migrations
Can - Mother Sky
Comus - Winter is a Coloured Bird
Soft Machine - Moon in June
Van der Graaf Generator - Darkness
Popol Vuh - In Den Garten Pharaos
Magma - Sohia (on second thought, Theusz Hamtaahk)
Dom - Edge Of Time
Tangerine Dream - Atem
Cardiacs - Big Ship

Oh yeah-that song is an absolute musical tour de force!  All five members bring forth incredible virtuosity and somehow they harness what should have been absolute mayhem into a coherent whole, run through contrasting movements, but always propelling forward with great energy.  It is the ultimate exposition of what Yes were capable of in both composition and execution.
