Van der Graaf Generator, sometimes known by the shorter Van der Graaf, are an English progressive rock band. They were the first act signed to Charisma Records. The band achieved considerable success in Italy during the 1970s. In 2005 they embarked on a reunion, which continues to the present day.
The signature Van der Graaf Generator sound in the 1970s was a combination of Peter Hammill’s distinctive and dynamic voice and David Jackson’s electronically-treated saxophones, generally playing over thick chordal keyboard parts (such as Hammond organ and/or clavinet). The band explored the complete range of phonaesthetics from euphony to cacophony, often within the same song[1]. Van der Graaf Generator albums tended to be darker in atmosphere than many of their prog-rock peers (a trait they shared with King Crimson, whose guitarist Robert Fripp guested on two of their albums), and guitar solos were the exception rather than the rule.
Hammill is the primary songwriter for the band, and the line between music written for his solo career and for the band is often blurred.
Formation and initial career (1967-1972)
The band first formed in 1967 while its members were studying at Manchester University. The three-piece was composed of Peter Hammill (guitar and vocals), Nick Pearne (organ) and Chris Judge Smith (drums and wind instruments). The group was named after a piece of electric equipment designed to produce static electricity, the Van de Graaff generator. The name was suggested by Smith (the misspellings are accidental). On the basis of a demo, this blues- and jazz-influenced first incarnation were offered a recording contract with Mercury Records.[2]

I'd have to say my favorite VdGG album is H to He, although Godbluff is getting to me. I haven't listened to Still Life yet, still on my shelf since I have a backlog of other prog rock albums to listen to.

What's your favourite VDGG album?Mine is Godbluff, hands down, it was more than a mindblower for the state of mind I was in when I first heard it, and it still has food for thought. [2], ARROW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! How did you find your way into VdGG music? Listening "White Hammer Of Love" in the radio after midnight.

How did you find your way into VdGG music? My first album was Pawn Hearts and after listening the first time I was really disappointed. Coming from bands like Yes and Camel, the disharmonic parts of Man Erg and Lighthouse Keepers just got on my nerves. Fortunately I gave them a second chance with Godbluff (which is much easier to start with). After getting H to He and Still Life it took not much more time to become VdGG my favourite band at all. And now, about ten years later, well, they still are... (P.S. It took me about ten tries to like Plaque of Lighthouse Keepers, and about fifteen to love it ;)

I got a copy The Book delivered recently, almost finished it. It wasn't cheap, but it was more than worth its price! I think it's a must have for any big VdGG fan. Hats off to Jim Christopulos and Phil Smart!

I have to say World Record... The Least We Can Do etc. is right behind it. Not one song on either of those albums is anything less than fantastic.

What's your favourite VDGG album? It's either H to He, Who am the only one or Still Life.

A Grounding In Numbers is just inappropriately awesome for a band whose members are almost senior citizens.
