I was wondering whether you knew other albums from other artists whiwh could give me the same kind of feeling (you know, travelling through space....) Back to top

Scatterplot Group: Members Posts: 1980 Joined: Dec. 2007 Posted: Aug. 31 2011, 13:54 Hello. The first 4 albums by Marillion are worth note. Speaking of Genesis(at first I thought Marillion was a Genesis tribute band)-was wrong-, always....1970 to 1982 I say to check out Genesis. Check out Renaissance, Synergy, Camel(Andrew Latimer), even more YES(Drama, etc), Steve Hackett, Anthony Phillips, Tony Banks, Alan Parsons Project, David Gilmour(solo), Tangerine Dream, Vangelis.....I could do this all day.

Im sure this thread will save the original poster a lot of time rather than trudging through old posts... or he can ignore it....easy choice. Back to top
