1	Everyone Is Everybody Else [UK Bonus Tracks] (2003) more music like this by Barclay James Harvest The group's first album for Polydor is several steps above their EMI work. Most of the psychedelic-era influences are softened here and broadened, and transmuted into something heavier and more serious, even as the Beatle-esque harmonies remain intact. The guitars sound real heavy, almost larger than life here, while the swelling Mellotron and ... see all copies from $16.44! new only from $16.44!
2	Gone to Earth [UK Bonus Tracks] (2003) more music like this by Barclay James Harvest A superb album already, Barclay James Harvest's 1977 Gone to Earth got a lot better in this reissue edition. For starters (before we even get to the bonus tracks that nearly double the running time of the original LP), there's the sound -- the state-of-the-art remastering puts all of the instruments practically right in your lap, but most ... see all copies from $15.51! new only from $17.64!
3	Berlin (A Concert for the People) (1982) more music like this by Barclay James Harvest Cut live at the Reichstag in the German city, Berlin is very different from The Live Tapes, with a rather leaner, harder-rocking sound, and more of a dance-rock feel as well, and is also miked much closer for a more intimate sound. "Mockingbird," "Child of the Universe," and "Hymn" are all performed rather more tightly than earlier live renditions ... see all copies from $16.46! new only from $16.46!
4	Time Honoured Ghosts [UK Bonus Track] (2003) more music like this by Barclay James Harvest Time Honoured Ghosts continued Barclay James Harvest's development away from the orchestral sweep of the earlier albums, although there's a little more filler than usual here. "In My Life" emphasizes BJH's penchant for ghostly descending vocal choruses and features an angular lead guitar part that would be recycled several years later in "Loving ... see all copies from $17.15! new only from $17.15!
5	Their First Album [UK Bonus Tracks] (2002) more music like this by Barclay James Harvest It is churlish to complain, but this bonus-track-stacked remaster of Their First Album is one of those examples where one really does get too much of a good thing. In its original, seven-track form, Barclay James Harvest's sensibly titled debut album was one of the unsung classics of the late '60s, a post-psychedelic pop album that posits a ... see all copies from $12.61! new only from $12.61!
6	Octoberon [UK Bonus Tracks] (2003) more music like this by Barclay James Harvest With Wolstenholme's keyboards pushed back in the mix, and strangely missing the harmonies that enriched their earlier work, Octoberon is something of a departure for the band. While Wolstenholme's stately "Ra" shows a dabbling in mysticism and the soaring sound of their previous work, most of the album is a strangely glum affair. John Lees adopts ... see all copies from $16.46! new only from $16.46!
7	Time Honoured Ghosts (1975) more music like this by Barclay James Harvest Time Honoured Ghosts continued Barclay James Harvest's development away from the orchestral sweep of the earlier albums, although there's a little more filler than usual here. "In My Life" emphasizes BJH's penchant for ghostly descending vocal choruses and features an angular lead guitar part that would be recycled several years later in "Loving ... see all copies from $7.00! new only from $7.00!
8	Everyone Is Everybody Else (1974) more music like this by Barclay James Harvest The group's first album for Polydor is several steps above their EMI work. Most of the psychedelic-era influences are softened here and broadened, and transmuted into something heavier and more serious, even as the Beatle-esque harmonies remain intact. The guitars sound real heavy, almost larger than life here, while the swelling Mellotron and ... see all copies from $25.67!
9	Live Tapes (1978) more music like this by Barclay James Harvest This double-live CD, made on BJH's last tour with Wooly Wolstenholme, is one of the better live albums to come out of the progressive rock genre. Though not as exciting as Genesis Live or as majestic as Yessongs, it shows the group in excellent form, playing and harmonizing beautifully and doing many of their best songs, among them "Child of the ... see all copies from $18.81! new only from $18.81!
10	Eyes of the Universe (1979) more music like this by Barclay James Harvest Punk's rise in Britain seemed to be leading to the demise of Barclay James Harvest, the fate awaiting so many of the island's veteran rock bands. Although 1976's Octoberon had finally pushed the band into the U.K. Top 20, it was all downhill from there, as the group's follow-ups in 1977 and 1978 landed ever lower in the listings, something that ... see all copies from $17.79! new only from $17.79!

13 view cover	Live (1974) more music like this by Barclay James Harvest Though it seems odd that a double-live album could serve as a band's breakthrough release, Live shows the band clearly building upon the strengths of their previous studio albums while avoiding their excesses. Without a string section to back them up -- or to smother them, depending on your thinking -- the band draws more heavily on its rhythm ... see all copies from $24.60!

15 view cover	Barclay James Harvest and Other Short Stories [UK Bonus Tracks] (2002) more music like this by Barclay James Harvest Like the work of Buffalo Springfield or the Moody Blues in the first go 'round, you'll need to take it on faith that the Baroque touches on Barclay James Harvest and Other Stories were effective for their time. The fuzzed guitars, Mellotron, bongos, heavy orchestration and dreamy arrangements may sound stilted today, but strip them away (or simply ... see all copies from $13.16! new only from $13.16!

17 view cover	Victims of Circumstance (1984) more music like this by Barclay James Harvest A competent collection of lightweight 80s rock. The simple arrangement of opening track "Sideshow" is helped by the use of guest backing vocalists, and the title track is one of BJH's better efforts from this period. The weakest link is in the keyboards, which unfortunately are also front and center in the recording. Bias Boshell creates some ... see all copies from $12.00!

While Wolstenholme's stately "Ra" shows a dabbling in mysticism and the soaring sound of their previous work, most of the album is a strangely glum affair.

20 view cover	Face to Face [UK Bonus Tracks] (2006) more music like this by Barclay James Harvest It's not impossible for an old progressive rock band to make an honorable transition into '80s pop. Yes, Genesis, and the Moody Blues all pulled it off, though with varying degrees of artistic success. But when a once-intelligent band has three song titles on one side featuring the word "Love," you know they're just phoning it in. "Panic" might be ... see all copies from $12.40! new only from $12.40!
21 view cover	Barclay James Harvest (1970) more music like this by Barclay James Harvest Barclay James Harvest's sensibly titled debut album was one of the unsung classics of the late '60s, a post-psychedelic pop album that posits a peculiar collision between the Bee Gees' vision of classic grandeur and the heftier sounds leaking out of the rock underground. Add Norman Smith's epic production and one cannot help thinking that if the ... see all copies from $32.81! new only from $35.28!
22 view cover	XII [UK Bonus Tracks] (2003) more music like this by Barclay James Harvest Based very loosely around the motif of literary genres (Science Fiction, Fantasy, Classics, etc.), XII shows Barclay James Harvest following many other progressive bands in the late '70s with slicker production and simplified song structures. This attempt at the mainstream doesn't always succeed; the album begins inauspiciously with "Loving Is ... see all copies from $20.59! new only from $20.59!
23 view cover	Gone to Earth (1977) more music like this by Barclay James Harvest Barclay James Harvest had streamlined their sound considerably after leaving the Harvest label, culminating (so many felt) in the mellifluous music of Gone to Earth. Their pretensions to progressive rock all but abandoned, BJH here invites comparison to contemporaries like Supertramp, REO Speedwagon, and Fleetwood Mac (some of whom were similarly ... see all copies from $28.35!
