[3/5King]

I've got the LTE first album. I have to admit it's not my favorite. For the DT spinoff stuff, I actually prefer LaBrie's solo work oddly enough.

In terms of Progressive Metal, one I'm really digging right now is an Australian band called Caligula's Horse. If you've not heard it, check out their track "Vanishing Rites" on youtube.

The video doesn't do the song justice, who ever directed it should be shot and drug behing a wagon, naked.

 

[59Bassman]

I agree regarding the video, but I think it was probably shot by one of their pals to be "artsy". Really outstanding work if you're OK with odd time signatures and dynamics.

rules - let's make it little more difficult - limit it to your top 5 of any genre (see the movie "High Fidelity" if you need the reason). No greatest hits or compilation albums - must be original material. If you want to also include one greatest hits/live/compilation album go for it.

Here's mine - no order:

"Wish You Were Here" - Pink Floyd
"Blue Train" - John Coltrane
"Glassworks" - Philip Glass
"Buckingham Nicks" - Lindsey Buckingham and Stevie Nicks
"What's Going on?" - Marvin Gaye

greatest hits/live/compilation album: "Dream Sequence" - Tangerine Dream.

Instant props for listing Philip Glass.

1. Guns 'n' Roses - Appetite For Destruction
2. Stevie Ray Vaughan & Double Trouble - Live At Montreux
3. Gavin Bryars - Jesus Blood Never Failed Me Yet
4. Buddy Guy - Buddy and The Juniors
5. Jimi Hendrix - Are You Experienced

ETA: Holy Necromancy
