Yes - "Fragile"
I say yes! 8)
It's really good!

I bought this album a few weeks ago and today I felt in the mood to listen to it.

Roundabout is a really cool opening song and of course one of the anthems of Progressive Rock. The excellent South Side Of The Sky I already knew because of Spock's Beard's cover version on "Snow". Heart Of The Sunrise is also a fantastic song. Those three songs are my favourites on this album.

I have the 2003 reissue with two bonus tracks, including a really cool and lenghty cover of a Simon & Garfunkel song called America.

This was my first real listen to this album and I am really impressed!
Next move is "Close To The Edge". ;D

Excellent choice. I am glad you enjoyed it. You may want to backwards to The Yes Album as well before too long.

NP Big Big Train - English Electric Part One

It was rather impossible to skip this album considering the amount of rave reviews it received. But I have encountered some severe disappointments with highly praised albums so I approach this one with caution. In the middle of the first listen right now. I notice that it does not have the heavy riffs that seem to have become mandatory these days in every neo or symphonic prog album and that is a good thing IMHO. David Longdon's vocals are not particularly impressive -his voice reminds me of Steve Winwood's- but it should not become a major concern for me.

NP  Monuments:  Gnosis

Highly original music, tempestuous metal with a djent flavor, blasts, growl and clean singing, wild solos, still also mellow passages - good enuff to make it to my prog pantheon  *horns*

London based group.

Saw them play at Temple of Doom, had a chance to chat with the singer Matt Rose. Super concert  8)

In the Room, probably only for Funky. Jonesey, how are you with this sorta metal these days ?

It's certainly a possibility, but now for something a little more mellow:

Camel - The Paris Collection.
Possibly my favourite of the official bootlegs.  Today, anyway ;D

Granted, not metal (;) ) but what a stunning album this is.
Islands, the opening track must be the best song of this year.
Will be hard to surpass this one. :)
