    Seeing as I almost never get high by myself, I never get a chance to listen to some music while high. I reckon Neutral Milk Hotel would be pretty awesome, so would Mogwai. Shame most of my friends don't like them as much as me.

    something that is really chill. i'm mostly listening to phish or keller williams when im high. but if you're adventurous some rap with a lot of beats sounds amazing.

    With Wakeman on board, Yes entered what some consider their most fertile and successful period, cutting two highly acclaimed LPs. Fragile (1971) went Top Ten in America, and Close to the Edge (1972) was also a huge seller. Yes enjoyed enormous commercial and critical success around the world and became one of the most popular concert attractions of the day. They also notably benefited from the tremendous advances in live music technology that were taking place at that time, and they were renowned for the high quality of both their sound and lighting.

    Fragile also marked the beginning of a long collaboration with artist Roger Dean, who designed the group's logo and their album covers, as well as their stage sets. Some consider the album Close to the Edge to be the high point of the whole progressive rock genre. Some fans of this era describe themselves as "Troopers", after the 3-part track "Starship Trooper" from The Yes Album.

    Shortly after the release of Close To The Edge, at the height of the band's success, Bill Bruford stunned fans with the news that he was quitting to join King Crimson. He was replaced by former Plastic Ono Band drummer Alan White, a more conventional rock drummer and a distinct contrast to the crisp, imaginative drumming of Bruford. White debuted on their next release, the three-record live collection Yessongs, recorded on their world tour in late 1972 and early 1973. The album included two tracks with Bruford, notably the song "Perpetual Change" with an extended Bruford drum solo, but White played drums on the balance of the tracks.

    Yessongs was a hugely ambitious project and undoubtedly a major gamble for their label, Atlantic Records. It was one of the first rock triple-album sets, featuring live versions of all-original material from the previous three studio albums. Presented in one of the most lavish album packages to date, Roger Dean's artwork spread across a triple gatefold cover and continued the cosmic-organic design concepts of the two previous albums. The album was another bestseller and was recently voted among the top twenty live records of all time.

    The british invasion brought some astounding classics, jethro tull is at the top of my list, but YES is my favorite, the YES album was kool we listened to it all the time, but what about fragile and close to the edge, even better songs to listen to. HOW about ROBIN TROWER bridge of sighs for music to listen to high.
    But looking back when I was younger, THE WHITE ALBUM, by the beatles was great to listen to when tripping, and HUMBLE PIE got us jumpin, Alice cooper rocked, and ted nugent. all rock is great when straight or buzzed, but hendrix just takes you there.
    For a good listen try LAND OF THE MIDNIGHT SUN by AL Dimeola if your like guitar it is a brilliant work, great when buzzed and eyes closed or lights down low, and just feel the artist at work.
    Other names of instrumental and jazz are definately old Santana, Cream, Stanley CLark, Jeff Beck, Especially WIRED and BLOW BY BLOW...if you wanna laff listen to Frank Zappa[​IMG]

    The Flaming Lips! They are the modern day Pink Floyd. They are smarter and deeper than alot of bands, even though you wouldn't think it from all the goofy stuff they do. Yoshime Battles the Pink Robots is just a notch below Wish You Were Here as my favorite albums
