I've got Curved Air - Live on at the moment.
Ah, Curved Air - saw them live back in the day. Sonja Kristina was certainly a striking performer :). My favourites are the 2nd album and 'Air Cut', the one where Eddie Jobson joined them - a great album.

Stained Glass Stories - Cathedral. Some more late seventies prog.
I think they have a quite "British" sound for an American band.

The Stone Roses on CD. The lead singer wants to be a door - apparently.

The Strat Pack - Live in Concert.
At the moment I'm listening to tracks with Mike Rutherford on guitar and Paul Carrack on vocals. If you like (rock) guitar music you really should hear this album.

p.s.
Paul Carrack is possibly the most underrated British lead vocalist still alive.

Best thing is the band is still playing - not with Darryl Way or Francis Monkman, but nevertheless great to see live. First time I saw them was at High Wycombe Grammar after the first album came out.

I'm listening to a recording that I bought from Peru of a Canadian band that was made in Germany, via my Swiss source, an Australian passive pre-amp, Japanese active crossover, American bass amp, Chinese midrange amp and American speakers.

Steel River. A Better Road. It's a warm vintagey recording of this bluesy rock band.
