First, I wish to ammend Steve Howard's list (which incidentally contains only
a couple of 'early 70's' titles.

	- Strawbs     : Bursting at the Seams, Grave New World, Hero and 
                        Heroine
	
	- Jade Warrior : Every LP before 'Kites' (about 5 in all)

	- van Der Graff : Pawn Hearts

	- Banco : Sono Noto Libero

	- ELP : Tarkus

	- Yes : Relayer

	- King Crimson (the real band) : Islands, Lizard, Lark's Tongue,
                                         Starless and Bible Black, Red

	- The Who : Tommy

	- Uriah Heep : Sailsbury (no I'm not kidding)

	- John Cale : Helen of Troy

	- Eno : Another Green World

	- Pulsar : Halloween, Strands of the Future

	- Alice Cooper : Killer

	- The Mothers : Uncle Meat, Grand Wazzoo

	- Eroc : Zwei (SP?)

	- Larry Fast : Realizations for a Rock Orchestra (Synergy I)

	- Mike Oldfield : Tubular Bells, Incantations, Hergest Ridge

Actually, this list could go on. Note, I have included stuff from only the
'early 70's'.  If you wanted to include the 60's you would necessarily need
to add contributions by The Beatles, etc.  Note also, that these titles
I believe fulfill my criteria to matching IED's music appreciation groupings.
Of course, from a technological standpoint many of these selections far 
outshine anything Kate has done, considering what was acomplished with the
technology available at the time.  For instance, there are complex textures
on Eno's Another Green World that it would take Kate a lifetime to conceive
on her Fairlight (unless of course she ripped them off using sampling).
I won't bore the list with my feelings about music critics again, and as
always, I hold my criticisms more dearly than those of most paid critics.
Imagine, only here in America can you equate Alice Cooper and Kate Bush, but
I've played Killer more times than all of my KB holdings combined.  Guess
that shows my True Colors.  Also, those of you who pay any attention to
my ramblings might note that I haven't listed Tangerine Dream, Klaus Schulze,
or any of the other Berlin pioneers, even though they are my personal
favorites, mainly because they shine in only one of IED's categories.
