    Must be a limit here, or any fan can write down about 50 "top songs" of her or his fave bands.

    Well the OP referenced creating an 80 minute CD.

    it's not easy to limit a fan's favorite songs to an 80 minute CD, but so far I've done my best to stay within the OP's request
    Why is it whenever someone mentions an artist that was clearly progressive (yet not the Symph weenie definition of Prog) do certain people feel compelled to snort "thats not Prog" like a whiny 5th grader?

    Stevie Wonder

    Keep On Running
    Evil
    Maybe Your Baby
    Superstition
    Too High
    Living For The City
    Higher Ground
    Don't You Worry Bout A Thing
    You Havent Done Nothin
    They Wont Go When I Go
    Contusion
    I Wish
    Earth's Creation
    The First Garden
    Voyage To India

    limiting Stevie to an 80 minute CD is pretty much impossible

    Very difficult to do a single 80-minute CD for prog bands. If you did that standard for the Big Six:

    ELP: Tarkus, Karn Evil 9, Barbarian, The Endless Enigma, Trilogy, Take A Pebble
    Yes: Close To The Edge, Awaken, South Side Of The Sky, Hart of The Sunrise, Long-Distance Runaround/The Fish, And You And I, Roundabout
    Jethro Tull: Thick As A Brick, A Passion Play
    Pink Floyd: Dogs, Shine On You Crazy Diamond/Welcome To The Machine, Echoes, Time, Us And Them, Money
    Genesis: Supper's Ready, Cinema Show/Aisle Of Plenty, Firth Of Fifth, I Know What I Like, The Musical Box, Entangled, One For The Vine
    King Crimson: Starless, Fracture, One More Red Nightmare, Fallen Angel, Lark's Tongue In Aspic, Part. I, In The Court Of The Crimson, Epitaph, Lizard

    Damn, I've spent 3 days trying to fix my DVD player in my computer, I hadn't played it in 2 years and the mechanism sticks. Finally replaced it with my even older cd player which works. Blame it on the Ipod! Now for the Jade Warrior discs...

    Anyone up for a Weather Report disc(s)?

    Al Di Meola

    mediterranean sundance
    midnight tango (w/o percussion solo at the end, to save time)
    race with devil on spanish highway
    egyptian danza
    mata hari
    kiss my axe
    beijing demons
    big sky azzura *
    misterio
    the grande passion
    saffire soleil *

    The next six songs, from the "Cielo e Terra" album, add to about 39 minutes, but I got a special 50%-off discount for that album, so they count as 19 minutes.
    Traces Of A Tear
    Vertigo Shadow
    Cielo e Terra
    Atavism of Twilight
    When You're Gone
    Etude

    And that brings the total to approximately 80 minutes.

    As you can conclude from this list, my favorite two albums by him are "Elegant Gypsy" and "Cielo e Terra".
    To draw attention to two special tunes that folks might not have heard but are very good and very different from his 1970s fusion stuff, I put a star * next to them.
    Also, for two other good and different tunes, with orchestral arrangements, check out
    the two songs between the stars.
