Island - Pictures (1977)

Very dark Swiss progressive band with strange instrumentation: percussion, drums, gongs, keyboards, pedal-bass, saxophones, flute, clarinet, and Peter Hammill like vocal delivery.

Listening now, second time through. This definitely deserves repeated listens, I'm going to have to 'study' it this week. How can something be so complex yet have so much sparseness? This is pretty special.

Yeah, it grows on you ;) Try this album if you like Island. By the way my CD has a bonus track, very interesting long composition not on the original LP.
