| # | Artist | Song (click to play) | Album | Year | CD label |
| 1 | Quidam | Bajkowy | Quidam | 1996 | Ars Mundi |
| Quidam, from Poland, have a prog/pop sound with some Camel and late seventies Genesis influences. They have your standard rock group instrumentation plus flute and pretty female vocals. | |||||
| 2 | Strombli | Bez nazvu | Strombli | 1987 | Bonton Music |
| Stromboli, from Czechoslovakia, are an unusual mix of atmospheric rock and fusion. This double CD contains one disk of live material, some of which was recorded at the Prague Jazz festival. The 2nd disk is all studio material. Although, the song included here is instrumental, most of the rest of the album features excellent female vocals. | |||||
| 3 | After Crying | Manok Tanca | De Profundis | 1996 | Periferic Records |
| This is considered by many to be After Crying's best release. This is the first one by them that I ever heard, and I was immediately hooked. | |||||
| 4 | Reportaz | tytanik | Reportaz | 1987 | Tonpress (LP only) |
| This is some pretty weird stuff here. The song included here made me think that I was listening to the beginning of a Woody Allen movie. For of the first side is unusual composed pieces, whereas the rest of the album is weird improvisational mayhem. I tacked on about a minute and a half of some of the improv material at the end of this song. Reportaz are from Poland. | |||||
| 5 | Omega | Ejfeli koncert | Idôrabló | 1977 | Hungaroton-Gong |
| Here is yet more of Omega's easy going prog/pop. | |||||
| 6 | Solaris | Book of Prophecies - part 3 | Nostradamus - Book of Prophecies | 1999 | Periferic Records |
| Solaris' latest release is quite good. All of the trademark Solaris elements are there - flute, excellent guitar, interesting compositional developments. They have also added a small amount of world music elements and choir. | |||||
