Trollheart's all-time favourite albums ever (ever!)

Thanks man!
That's true, but it was a double edged sword, as I think labels could see the change coming and that people were getting tired of overlong, overblown prog rock, that something new was in the wind. And if you think the trend is about the change, as it was, you're unlikely to bankroll any of the old guard.

Watched a docu on WOTW where Wayne talked about the difficulty he had in getting backing for the album, and the surprise that it sold and was accepted so well. Hard to believe now but back then it was almost a case of (sucks air in through teeth, shakes head) "Not in that colour mate! Nobody wants it, y'know what I mean?"
