1145 behave under the lights?

speaking of obscure 'tron albums, a copy of this "spring" lot's opus recently 
found it's way onto my premises, replete with bonus tracks. does anyone else 
think they overdid it a bit?

I'll get me coat.

Try Doug Larson Imports out of New Jersey.  He has the most 
obscure 'tron prog delights ever to be found.  Fast & reliable guy.

Here are a few obscurities I snagged from him that are pretty tronned 
up:
-Il Balletto di Bronzo - Ys
-Osanna - Palepoli
-Cyrille Verdeaux - Clearlight Symphony
-Earth & Fire - Song of the Marching Children
-Sandrose

Enjoy!

I think it speaks volumes about the strange world I live in that I don't
find any of these even slightly obscure. Help!

I know this is now a v.old post, but the Sandrose album is a Mellotron
MONSTER, and a bloody good album to boot. One of Musea's v.first releases,
if not the first - an absolute essential.

Indeed.  To the serious proghead none of those records are obscure, though 
I beieve the Osanna may be currently OOP.  They are also all outstanding 
albums full of inventive, imaginative music every bit as creative as that 
produced by better known, mellotron-armed, contemporaries Yes, Genesis, 
King Crimson, Greenslade, etc.

Heck...seeing the cover image...I got that vinyl in storage.  Can't remember a darn thing about the music though; I can tell you it didn't get a whole lot of listening back in the day.

Maybe it's time to get it out again and give it another go-round, maybe transfer it to CD....?????

Regards,
MSB

Where, in the UK, can one purchase the Sandrose, and other "tronned up"
classic CDs?  Are there any good prog-rock-shops that can deliver quicly and
not rip you off?  Earth and Fire's "Atlantis" is pretty "tronned up" too, by
the way.  Aidan

I feel the same way about my tastes in music.  Most of the time 
anyway, people are like "melloowhut?" (in super Southern drawl).  
Then when you explain the mechanism w/tapes, etc. the puzzled look 
sets in.  Whattya expect..I live in Atlanta GA!

here are a couple of other albums worth checking out with tasty 'tron 
that may or may not be obscure but rock:
-Cherry Five (members of Goblin - pre-Goblin)
-Samla Sammaz Manna - Maltid (kind of wacky Mothers of I. influenced)
-Cosmic Jokers - Galactic Supermarket (Klaus Schulze)
-Herbie Hancock - Sextant
-most of PFM albums - essential

happy holidays!

Try GFT mail order (Malcolm Parker). 020 8339 9965. 'Atlantis' is probably
E&F's 'Tron-heaviest album, and maybe their least cheesy, too.  :-)

There is not much 'tron on that album, though, but what is there is good
stuph.

        And there are the first two Procession releases.
