<p>ELO - I would definitely try out the the albums "Eldorado" from 1974 and "A New World Record" from 1976.</p>
<p>The WHO - Their best albums are "Tommy", "Who's Next" and "Quadrophenia". Classic, classic stuff!!</p>
<p>Pink Floyd - "Dark side Of The Moon" and "Wish You Were Here" are definitely their best albums!! Don't listen to those people, who says "The Wall" is a masterpiece. It's not.</p>

<p>Steely Dan cd's are pretty cheap and they're all remastered.</p>
<p>For Pink Floyd and ELO, check out their box sets of the studio albums. You should be able to find them for a good price.</p>

<p>1. <strong>Steely Dan</strong>- I've got the Greatest Hits CD "A Decade of Steely Dan", but I would love to hear some of their deeper album material.</p>
<p>2. <strong>Electric Light Orchestra</strong>- I know the hits, but I would love to listen to their deeper album tracks.</p>
<p>3. <strong>The Who</strong>- Same as ELO- I've got the hits down, but could use some deeper tracks added to my collection.</p>

<p>4. <strong>The Allman Brothers</strong>- I have the 20th Century Masters CD, but that doesn't get hardly anywhere into their apparently very extensive catalogue, so I would definitely like to hear more.</p>

<p>I'm really enjoying, checking out the bands, that I for some reason haven't checked out completely before and albums, that I haven't heard in full, and besides the bands, that I now are a new-born fan of, this is what i've come up with:</p>
<p>UFO - I've been listening to (in full) "Force It". "Lights Out" and "Obsession", and.......it's okay, but I haven't REALLY discovered anything great about this band. Some tracks, that aren't on "the best of" are so much better than the hits, though.…</p>

Some tracks, that aren't on "the best of" are so much better than the hits, though. I'll try a few other albums, but i don't think they will win me over completely.</p>
<p>Journey - I've been listening to "Infinity", "Evolution" and "Departure", and Journey actually sounds pretty much like the Journey, I knew of, meaning: I don't really like it. some of it is listenable, but that's all. Nothing especially good for me here at all.</p>
<p>Kansas - I've been listening to "Leftoverture" and "Point of no return" and as much, as it surprised me, how much I like Styx, It surprises me, that I don't really care about these albums, because Scott has posted a few Kansas-tracks, that I really liked, but again, nothing on these albums excites me that much.</p>
<p>Free - I've been listening to "Free" and "Fire And Water" and I'm not impressed at all. I understand now why this band wasn't bigger.</p>
<p>Fleetwood Mac - Actually, I hadn't been listening to either "Tusk" or "Mirage" in full until now. I especially like "Tusk", but I like this band more now, than I did before. I will try to listen, to some of the old Peter Green Fleetwood Mac-albums now.</p>
<p>Heart - was/is an 80's AOR-band to me, and they had a few good songs, and that was it. I've tried to listen to their "best of" a few years back in time, but got really bored rather quickly. Now I've been listening to "Dreamboat Annie", and I'm bored once again. I don't think, I'll waste any more time on Heart.</p>
<p>Boston - Now there's another shock (for me), since I've always known, that the first two Boston-albums were very populare in the US, and "More Than a feeling" was a great, but waaayy overplayed track. Still I haven't heard those two albums more than once, back in the 80's at a pary or something like that, but now they sound, how shall I put it, not bad at all to me. I kind of like boston now, and after "Third Stage", which I bought and hated back then, then it is somewhat of a shock to me.</p>

<p>Yup, I am indeed, and that surprise me LOT!! I always thought, Styx was crap. What I had heard was certainly crap.</p>
<p>But again, I'm also an Alice Cooper (the band) fan now, even though until here and now, I wasn't impressed at all.</p>
<p>AND a Genesis (Gabriel-era) fan, even though I was very impressed by the "Genesis Revisited II"-album last year, I thought, until now, that the original albums were weakly produced. Nope, they are sounding great.</p>

Nah, forget about it. I can listen to "Equinox" and "Crystal Ball" on Youtube, so I'm fine.
