Zanov's Moebius 256 301 over the Tangerine Dream, Klaus Schulze, Kraftwerk, Stomu Yamashta, Edgar Froese and Ashra albums.

Very nice poll per my interests.

Of this poll, Froese's classic Epsilon in Malaysian Pale (3 stars, Paul?).

Ashra, Gandalf, Hoenig, Kitaro, Synergy, Tangerine Dream, Wavestar – all classics, no question. Moonwind was on heavy rotation in '88!

5 stars for albums that "pale" in comparison, too.

That may simply be because my half dozen 5-star albums are more familiar to me than Edgar's Epsilon in Malaysian Pale. Smile

^Moonwind is better than those Fox, Pickford, Williams albums, IMHO.

Moonwind is very good, but I like John Dyson's solo works even more so. His solo albums will be coming up in the poll right after I run out of Wavestar albums. Smile

JOHN DYSON 'Ow do! It's John Dyson and 'e's not 'ere to vacuum yer carpets. He's from Sheffield in South Yorkshire, don'tcha know. He's known for the Evolution of a distinctive whistling synth sound and I'll tell yer that for nowt. He studied at the Berlin School of electronic music, but by 'eck, that's a long way to travel from Sheffield. Ta-ra for now, me duck. Wink

^I was disappointed by Evolution when I first heard it. The next few were expensive imports for the time, so I didn't follow Dyson's solo career beyond that. But those early Wavestar albums are chock-full of great textures and music.

I went to see John Dyson in concert in Derby back in 1995 where John constantly joked about his keyboard player being dressed in his pyjamas, which is maybe not so funny now, but you had to be there. Tongue

Didn't DWH die after he'd lived here in the States for a bit? Or did he go back to England first?

I remember it reported that Macca was in attendance at one of Dyson's concerts at a fest in the Netherlands many years ago.

Got to give it to Edgar Froese but I equally love Tomita's Pictures an Exhibition. Released in 1975 , it was inspired by ELP's 1971 version and also had artwork that was inspired by ELP's Brain Salad Surgery album. Keith Emerson in response became a bit of a fan of Tomita's version and incorporated some of the ideas into ELP's 1977 version on their Works tour.

Pictures At An Exhibition, Primary, 1 of 4
