Max Werner (Kayak)

   The voice of Kayak in the 70s.  Also the drummer and keyboardist depending on which album you're playing.  His 1982's Rainbows End LP is certainly prog.  Well...it's as prog as any of Kayak 70's output which is always up for arguement.  If this album had a Kayak name slapped on it, I really don't think the average prog fan would really notice the differences.  It's one of my personal obscure favourites and I really would like to see it honoured and perhaps grow in popularity to get a CD release someday.  

This is his solo discography.

A better solo discography, but missing his 1988 release.

I honestly don't kow if Seasons, How Can it Be...Like This?, or Not the Opera is pop, AOR or Prog as I don't have those 3 albums, but Rainbows End certainly deserves recognition on this website.  If anyone who is in charge of making the recommendations needs an MP3 to sample, I'll gladly supply one.

	this seems to be a very obscure album as you say - if you have any biog/MP3's you could send in it would help MW's case for inclusion.
