I know one so far, Legend of Arthur and the Roundtable, but I want to learn about more and listen to more for inspiration and the story telling potential it holds.

Any suggestions would be great

I'd absolutely put Hemispheres in there too. The first track of Hemispheres is a direct sequel to the last track of Farewell to Kings. Also Xanadu from Hemispheres is very much a fantasy song.

Yeah. The CD only has 4 tracks, though ;-)

Clocking in at 37 minutes. Don’t judge prog by the number of tracks… pretty typical album runtime for anything released in the vinyl era.

Also, it’s fantastic.

I thought the smiley face was sufficient to express that I was joking.

Oops ;-)

S'allright. Use of old-time smilies of fading away, and with it, our recognition of them when they pop up.
