But where, amongst all these lists, should I go next, as someone who loves Yes and knew the Peter Gabriel Genesis, and King Crimson's Court of the Crimson King, and grew out of ELP years ago? (Already ordered Larks Tongue in Aspic)
Bear in mind that I tend to listen to this music in the car, so it shouldn't make me go too fast...

Originally posted by Boilk View PostFor quality English quirkiness, try albums by Hatfield and the North, National Health and Bruford (founded by the ex-Yes drummer but not drummer-dominated by any means). All their albums contain finely-crafted compositions and superb playing. You might also like the debut album by UK (a shortlived "super group" of John Wetton, Bill Bruford, Allan Holdsworth and Eddie Jobson).bong ching

They are what I meant by referring to jazz elements in prog rock.

Very interesting how that band came out of The Wilde Flowers when some of the personnel split to form Soft Machine. The Softs moved up here to join up with The Pink Floyd Sound at the Free School in Notting Hill Gate, near the tenement where the movie "Performance" had James Fox meeting Mick Jagger for a near mènage a quatre, while Caravan-to-be lived pro tem in a caravan somewhere near Broadstairs, hence the name adopted. I think it was Joachim Berendt referred to them as "the English Jefferson Airplane".
