"Solaris" are a progressive rock band from Hungary, taking their name from novel by sci-fi writer Stanislaw Lem. And "Martian Chronicles", its title taken from a novel from sci-fi writer Ray Bradbury, is an absolute masterpiece, incorporating a subtle blend of symphonic rock & awesome orchestral accompaniments. This is one album everyone has to listen to before they get abducted by aliens. Prepare to be blown away with this album.

Hey Pablo my man,
Mighty fine of you nice one dude.
The Solaris album is worth a listen even though you are not a prog man. Nice symphonic stuff. I know you like your psych.
Thanks again my friend

Hello Jeremy,
Tx for your visit. If you are interested in some Can music check out Muzica Acida on my bloroll list. They have 4 albums by Can, some of them you may not have. If you are interested in one you can't find, drop me another request & we'll see what we can do.
See you soon

Thanks, it sounds very interesting.
By the way, I think Stanislaw Lem wrote Solaris which is the name of the band and Martian Chronicles is a famous book by Ray Bradbury. Both novels are great, I recommend them to everyone.
Thanks again Chuntao! Can't wait to give it a listen!
NK666,
I thought there was something strange about this coz I have read Ray Bradbury book during my mid-teens when I was reading Stephen King.
Thanks for correcting that. Two books in the one title. Cool

Jim,
You're welcome. Hope you agree it's very good :]

Many thanks.
Download failed unfortunately (I use a library computer; that the problem?); I'll keep trying. Never heard of them but it sounds fantastic; hope that I succeed eventually.
Sorry Anon,
That your d/l failed on that library computer. I have tried myself and the archive is fine. Maybe you should borrow a friend's comp for an hour or so.
Good luck
Chuntao
Brilliant album. Thanks my son. regards, Baz
Being reminded of the classic hungarian band Omega yesterday, i think I should give this a listen. Thanks
I feel i have to say a massive thankyou for posting this superb album I am now searching import shops and record fairs for other albums by Solaris - excellent group.I am sorry I have not sent a comment before ,I am quite new to this but I must say your site has opened up a new world of groups I had forgotten about or had not heard of before, I feel like a greedy kid in a sweet(candy) shop cheers Tyler-Perry
