    Perhaps not for you Andre, but I love PM's Gong "Time is The key." The forst few tracks seem to flow together as a whole and the LP was a good cut too IMO..

    I've also followed Mr Hillage and Miquette (of the synthy twiddly bits and sexy French voice) Giraudy into their System 7 projects. The last release "Phoenix" actually had some decent guitar riffs too

    agreed Time is the Key is a beautiful slice of jazzrock-in my top 10 alltime top 10, awesome bass on this on my record reproduction apparatus.

    Andre, this is top secret TeeDee stuff, ok, an old joke that backfired at the time.....

    If you like deliberately difficult prog, try my cousin-in-law - Martin Hawks aka Evans aka MH progressive on MySpace and facebook I think. His music is full of "intellectual" key and tempo changes - you'll like it I think as VDH Generator was an early influence along with many others from this era...
