It's probably the strangest one of the bunch, and not exactly what you'd call an accessible album.  I'd tell him to go with something more obvious, like "Dark Side of the Moon". 
I don't know. I know hardcore Floyd fans always say Piper is their best, but I just can't seem to warm up to it.  I think it's overrated actually."I saw a woman with major Hammer pants on the subway a few weeks ago and totally thought of you." - sextonseven | |

You know, I've been meaning to check out that band, Spirit. Maybe I'll give 'em a listen this weekend. Them as well as Ten Years After. I'm not big on acoustic hippie Rock, but I'm open-minded about it at least. NEW WAVE FOREVER: SLAVE TO THE WAVE FROM THE CRADLE TO THE GRAVE. | |

Me too. I love "Fresh Garbage" by Spirit, which I have on a compilation album, but I don't have anything else by them. Yet."I saw a woman with major Hammer pants on the subway a few weeks ago and totally thought of you." - sextonseven | |

Start at the start... 
...you won't be sorry. It's got some "wavy" elements to it.

I even designed a kickass Thin Lizzy t-shirt which I live in.  "I saw a woman with major Hammer pants on the subway a few weeks ago and totally thought of you." - sextonseven | |

Jimmy Page recently compiled a CD with artists that were his musical influences, and "Fresh Garbage" was on there. That's how I first heard them actually."I saw a woman with major Hammer pants on the subway a few weeks ago and totally thought of you." - sextonseven | |

The whole show was done with the right amount of reverence for Phil and the whole experience gave me goosebumps. Really really spritual. | |

I thought about seing them too, but I just couldn't do it without Phil. "I saw a woman with major Hammer pants on the subway a few weeks ago and totally thought of you." - sextonseven | |
