unapalomablanca Posted December 8, 2011 Report Share Posted December 8, 2011 (edited) Drift away with your headphones on and listen to 'i hear you now' or 'i'll find my way home' or State of Independance etc. Evocative, dreamy, beautiful, magical and original. Play it to your family if they've never heard it before. Jon anderson of YES and the composer of Chariots of Fire, Vangelis. The older members will know it but i want everyone to know that great music like this was once common!

willy1 Posted December 9, 2011 Report Share Posted December 9, 2011 The other albums in my collection that are favourites of mine,"Olias of Sunhillow",and "Angels Embrace" both by Jon Anderson, I think Vangelis helped on "Olias".

Fatcatsplat Posted December 10, 2011 Report Share Posted December 10, 2011 Have to admit to liking a bit of prog every now and then (Anyone remember IQ, Pallas or Pendragon??), but these two are just too "perfect" - Hate to use the phrase, but it's elevator music really.
