Hi All,

Being the prog rock tragic I am, I have most of these albums. A lot of Mike Oldfield's earlier albums (and some of the later ones) are de-facto one track albums split only by the limitations of vinyl. Ones that come to mind are Tubular Bells, Hergest Ridge, Ommadawn, Incantations, Music of the Spheres, Tubular Bells II & III & Amarok. Several others are dominated by one long track and a small collection of minor pieces -- Platinum, Crises, Islands.

Tales from Topographic Oceans by Yes (double album) is in a similar category with just four tracks over the two records. Several Tangerine Dream albums (particularly the ones from about 1973 to 1980 are similar as well.

Best,

Les D
