I've heard a fair amount of his music over the years -- very good musician. I thought he was in the archives for some reason (since he isn't, this should be moved and I coulkd move to Suggest New Bands or General Music Discussions -- choosing the former). I really like Bacchanal (this track is very good, I think). |

| I actually prefer the Dreams album. The first track on that is just amazing. Bacchanal is very good too. |

I like Dreams too, haven't heard the album in a long time though. I was going to include a youtube vid of "Galatea's Guitar" before, but was rushing: |

I've heard some of his albums. Like many, I suppose, I became interested due to Santana's version of Gypsy Queen. As said, I've not heard it all, but a big  for what I have heard.------------- Can you tell me where we're headin'? Lincoln County Road or Armageddon. |

| Sounds like a possible case for Proto-Prog. Would you support this suggestion for the Admin Team, Greg? |

| I won't in an 'official' capacity at this time since that would require research and a brain to make the case, and frankly, I haven't had success with ones I've endorsed (or suggested). Maledictus Sound, for instance, I thought would be a simple one, but.... |

I have the album 'high contrast'. it's rather smoothy latin jazz and I like it very much. ------------- "Magma was the very first gothic rock band" (Didier Lockwood) |
