Give 'Ambrosia' another listen

This is all news to me. I knew their one big schmaltzy hit, and had no idea that they had a previous catalog of respected prog rock. I hope that I can afford one of these CD's soon and explore it for myself.

After a period of being thoroughly spoiled by some of the most creative artists and musicians in rock history, Ambrosia filled  a much needed void in my search for musical genius.  Their first album is/was a musical masterpiece showing  a mix of boldness, creativity,,highly competent musicians — and, vocals. 

I used the intro to Time Waits for No one “ to demonstrate (and sell) the benefit of subwoofers.  A plus.

Their first 3 albums are really good,then they went commercial.  Saw them live opening for Tangerine Dream.

It comes down to supply and demand or "what the market will bear".

I’ve spent considerably more for out of print CDs, particularly Jazz; I don’t consider $28 "expensive" for a hard-to-find title.

It all depends on your budget and how much the music means to you.

Perhaps BGO or a similar label will eventually reissue Ambrosia at modest price. Of course, once reissues are out of print, prices rise again.

It pays to regularly keep an eye on discogs, Ebay and Amazon if you are looking for something rare because every so often a seller will price a cd much lower than other sellers. I've taken advantage of such situations numerous times.

My first concert ever was a Pablo Cruz/Ambrosia twinbill, in Blacksburg, VA
