Mark Fry - Dreaming With Alice

Trees - Fore & After (RSD purchase - didn't realise they semi-reformed a few years ago and still sounded great judging by the live tracks included on side 4 of this collection)

Peter Howell & John Ferdinando - Alice Through The Looking Glass

The High Llamas - Hawaii

Ash Ra Tempel - Ash Ra Tempel
Ash Ra Tempel - Schwingungen

Bo Hansson - Music Inspired by Lord of the Rings
Bo Hansson - Magician's Hat
Bo Hansson - Attic Thoughts
Bo Hansson - Music Inspired by Watership Down

Jethro Tull - This Was
Jethro Tull - Stand Up

Gastr Del Sol - Camoufleur

Labradford - Labradford

Julian Cope - Friar Tuck (treated myself to a vinyl copy of this from my local record store, Eel Pie Records in Twickenham, and enjoyed it even more than the YouTube upload I initially sampled it from)

Faust - Faust
Faust - So Far
Faust - The Faust Tapes
Faust - Faust IV

Kraftwerk - Trans Europe Express

Bob Dylan - 1970

The Beatles - Yellow Submarine (full soundtrack - you can't beat It's All Too Much for sheer psychedelic ecstasy, particularly the full length version. Don't think the fabs did anything else so loose and unbalanced mix-wise, but it's all part of the charm).

Eric Burdon & The Animals - Love Is

Flaming Youth - Ark 2

Genesis - From Genesis To Revelation

Vangelis - BR25

Captain Beefheart & The Magic Band - The Spotlight Kid
Captain Beefheart & The Magic Band - Clear Spot
Captain Beefheart & The Magic Band - Unconditionally Guaranteed

I particular like I Got Love On My Mind, Observatory Crest and Further Than We've Gone.

Donovan - HMS Donovan

Lilys - In The Presence Of Nothing
Lilys - Ecsame The Photon Band

Witch Hazel - Landlocked
