These 80's efforts are in my personal-favourites, yet rarely see anyone mention them. Even Youtube doesn't have them in full-album format. I have them on CD.

- A Fiïèh by Offering: more well-known as Magma, this side-project had its ups & downs but they finished with this beautiful stunning album. The first 3 tracks especially are godly. Here's the title track, sounding like a sermon from the heavens:

- Carmina Burana by Ray Manzarek: the Doors keysman does his version of proto-zeuhl monster Carmina Burana by Carl Orff. Rock + Orff is delicious! Here's the famous bit:
