Glad to know of at least one other person who's happy I've written about three of their songs (so far). "Rockaria!" was included in the compilation of songs that mentioned classical composers.

What albums would you recommend I get to start with, Al?

My favorite is Out of the Blue, their double album. The side with “Concerto for a Rainy Afternoon,” consisting of three sings ending with Mr. Blue Sky, is my favorite work. Earlier best disc is “On the Third Day.”

That Greatest Hits album is absolute gold. I’m not a huge fan of the band but there’s not one skippable track on that compilation
