	Break-In Master Member since Dec 2013 250 Points	I was just thinking the day after I finished Woodstock that I used to like a lot of spacey music, mostly from the mid to late `70's when album rock was really big on FM stations and I decided to try to put together a compilation of that stuff I used to like. Problem is, I've been away from my collection for 3 years, I've been through hell the past 7 or 8 years and I've been away from that particular type of music for about 40 years! So, I'm just not as familiar with it anymore and thought yinz might be able to toss some ideas my way to spark more memories for me. Most of the stuff I'm talking about is minor key music that tends to have at least SOME synth in it. So far, the list contains these: Alan Parsons / A Dream Within A Dream / The Raven Steve Miller / The Window / Space Intro / Fly Like An Eagle Gary Wright / Dream Weaver Foreigner / Starrider Kraftwerk / Mitternacht Norman Greenbaum / Marcy / Alice Bodine Moody Blues / Twilight Time / Days Of Future Past / Lost In A Lost World / Candle Of Life / What Am I Doing Here / Melancholy Man / Watching And Waiting (and a few others. I have to listen to the last 4 of their classic 7 again to get used to what's there.) The Sopwith Camel / Fazon Klaatu / Little Neutrino ELP / From The Beginning / Still...You Turn Me On Manfred Mann / Spirits In The Night Tim Blake / New Jerusalem Fingers Akimbo / The Buttonwillow Yes / "Soon" (from Gates Of Delirium) There's also gonna be some early Tangerine Dream tossed in. I have at least 75 hours worth of their stuff so, no need to even mention them. Some others that MIGHT make the cut are: Nazareth / Please Don't Judas Me / Shapes Of Things To Come Hawkwind / Psi Power SFF / Slow Motion / Ticket To Everywhere Fleetwood Mac / Crystal Pink Floyd / Astronomy Domine / Set The Controls For The Heart Of The Sun (both from Ummagumma) / Welcome To The Machine / Cirrus Minor UK / In The Dead Of Night The Fixx (I seriously doubt it but, POSSIBLY a couple things from their first 3 albums.) Dire Straits / Sultans Of Swing / MAYBE Brothers in Arms (Most of these will only go if they have the right feel to them.) Anybody else have any ideas of stuff I can use/
