Introduction To The Flower Kings

As many people on the forums know I am a huge Flower Kings so I decided to make a good list to introduce people to the band

From last.fm:
The Flower Kings formed in 1993 by veteran guitarist Roine Stolt as a touring band to support his solo album The Flower King, the band stayed together after the tour and has gone on to become one of the most prolific studio recording units in rock music of their era. In ten years it has released nearly 18 hours of music

Roine Stolt has written the vast majority of the material the band has recorded, withThomas Bodin contributing most of the rest. The music is perhaps best described as "symphonic," bearing a strong resemblance in many instances to that of Yes, and yet there are also hints of strong influence from the jazz fusion genre. The band’s lyrics are almost uniformly positive, affirming such values as love, peace, and spirituality.

Some of these are epics none are full albums though
