I've got essentially everything Renaissance has done on CD including Annie Haslam's solo efforts (I also have the original vinyl versions). I have several CD's by Illusion which had some of the same members. I've been a big fan since the mid 70's.
Ambrosia's first album was also a great progressive rock effort engineered by Alan Parsons. High quality very good headphone music. Unfortunately YouTube's quality doesn't reproduce this very well.
A classic:

One of my all time favorite songs:

and another with pipe organ - not something you hear in rock very often:

Progressive/psychedelic music with the Jabberwocky spoken starting at about 2:30:

When I was a DJ doing the 11 to 5am slot in the mid 70's we played a lot of I robot.

Loved A Parsons Project. Ambrosia was good late night play also when we came down from the stoop bongs.

Well that was unexpected, I liked that, thank you.
You might like this, particularly the track "Unorthodox Behavior". It is very well made music:

This was pretty much Genesis without Tony Banks.

Before "Mike and the Mechanics", Mike Rutherford put out this gem.

How about Genesis without that pop sellout Phil Collins?

A Trick of The Tail and Wind & Wuthering are my favorite Genesis albums, at that time, Phil hadn't started writing yet.

I had that album. Here's another in the same vein that I also had -- with even worse singing:

At least the writer of that article had the good sense and taste to list King Crimson before Asia.
I was never a fan of his singing, but his bass playing when paired with Bill Bruford in King Crimson was outstanding. Fripp called them a "flying brick wall", which was pretty apt. Last song on the last album he made with them:

And here's my favorite KC straight improv with some monstrous bass licks from Wetton -- Bruford just started, and everything from there on was completely on the fly.

Suck on that, Asia.

After Peter Gabriel the last real album Genesis put out was Trick of the Tail. The rest of their stuff was Top 40 urine.

There is a Genesis tribute ban called The Musical Box that does note for note recreations of Gabriel-era Genesis shows. Phenomenally good, and even Gabriel himself has seen them. Steve Hackett and Phil Collins (drums only) have sat in with them in a show before. If you like that music, they are very well worth seeing -- they tour all over the world.
I saw them do a Lamb tour, and also a Foxtrot tour. Great shows.
