Subject: OT: EM records (was:Ice Station Zebra)

From: Larry David <ldavid@...>

O.k. I'm sure this has been covered before but I don't "Yahoo" so I
can't check the archives. I discovered electronic music in the
eighties, along with a local used record store where all the good stuff
(Jarre, TD, Kitaro, etc.) was in a corner for cheap - cuz I guess it
wasn't Maddona or Duran Duran. The groups/artists listed in this recent
thread are new to me. Would anyone be willing to make a little list of
artists/albums with real brief descriptions or comparisons to "known"
standards of reference? It is always a joy for me to discover a new EM
record, let alone a whole new artist/catalog.

So here's what I mean:

Artist: Triumvirat
Albums: Spartacus, Julius Caesar, The Sacking of Alexandria
Style: prog rock

Artist: Kayak
Albums:
Style: Like Jarre with some TD

Of course the above is made up, but that's the idea.

Thanks,
