dgcaer Group: Members Posts: 72 Joined: Dec. 2000 Posted: May 08 2002, 11:53 My favorite, other than Mike Oldfield, are: 2-Tangerine Dream 3-Vangelis For me, all 3 are the same level of quality. Other interesting are: 4-Klaus Schulze 5-Edgar Froese (solo project of a TD member) 6-Philip Glass 7-Yann Tiersen 8-Pink Floyd have many good thing, but many bad thing too. 90% of Jean-Michel Jarre is crap. It's not an artist. Back to top

raven4x4x Group: Members Posts: 1535 Joined: Jan. 2002 Posted: May 22 2002, 06:17 I have a definitive list of Five Awesome Artists. Mike is of course first, then... Yes: Very much like Mike in structure (sort of...), but in other ways very different. Favourites are Fragile, Close to the Edge and such, anything with Steve Howe and Rick Wakeman. That leads me on to... Rick Wakeman: The worlds most excelent keyboardist. I love Both centre of the Earth Albums, and king authur. I have two live albums: Hammersmith Odeon and a Rock Legends DVD, that kick ass completely. Harry Chapin:Amazing beautiful songs. I don't have any actual albums, but i do have a live one and a two CD best of. Most of his songs, I hate to say it, are superior to most of Mike's, especially Mr. Tanner, The Rock, Shooting Star, Circle, Taxi, Sequal and the immensely powerful Sniper. Finally, Moby: Only having one album of his (Play), I can't talk much, but I can say that it is an amazing album. He is also a one dude artist that does everything, and with so much variety. The album Play was in the Australian charts for what seems like two years, and that isn't much of an exaggeration either. -------------- Thank-you for helping us help you help us all. Back to top

He did do some really nice songs, and he also represented a good cause; ending world hunger. He is definatley one of my favourite artists. -------------- Thank-you for helping us help you help us all. Back to top
