Just curious why 'Tower Struck Down' from Steve Hackett's 'Voyage of the Acolyte' was not included, though the rest of the album is posted. I think that's one of the most interesting tunes on the album (great time signature).

Also... You got to get hold of Brand X covering Genesis's 'Can Utility and THe Coastliners'. A great underated tune, usually overshadowed by the rest of the classics on Foxtrot. I have an mp3 of it if you need a copy (not the best quality).

Ooo ya, also ..

Jean Luc Ponty's Tchokola. Just post the title track. I think it's one of his most sophisticated albums rythmatically. This I would love to contribute if interested.

skipping "Tower Struck Down" is an accident - I'll add it. I have "Tchokola", so don't donate it (but thanks for the offer) - haven't listened to it in awhile, I'll do so and make a decision. It's defintely different than "typical" Jean-Luc

cool, thanks.
Ya i'm not sure Tchokola classifies as prog, more like world. I just think its a brilliant tune for the 'advanced;)' listener.

I listened to Tchokola again, and I think I'm going to add a few tracks off of it, title track included. It is indeed some interesting stuff. Overall, the album is a cross between world music and prog, and the mix varies. Some songs are very "world" and little "prog", and others the opposite. I need one more listen to determine which specific songs...
