Al Stewart is definitely recommended listening. I have only heard his two most famous albums, "Year of the Cat" and "Time Passages," but I can tell you that both of those albums are great. There is something wonderfully strange about his music; many of his songs are about mysterious world travelers who make shady deals while they ponder the endless time-space continuum. It's hard to explain! Anyway, I've been pleasantly surprised by the Al Stewart material that I've heard.
