A few suggestions

[Rick and Roll]

It's Solar Fire, Good Earth, then N+B.

I still need to hear Solar Fire, and Good Earth (which I have) is indeed more "straightforward". N+B is awesome, especially if you get past the Springsteen cover "Spirit In the Night" (which I think is great). There's a track on there "Visionary Mountains" which is a sonic treat. The title cut is as proggy as they get (except for the great "Sky High" off of Good Earth").
