If anyone needs these albums let me know.
Get yer votes in guys!
I have never heard of that touchstone band, but It Bites is a very fine AOR/neo-prog band. Their 'once around the world' album is a 5-star record. The album that followed, 'eat me in St-Louis' was more hard-rock oriented but still very good. It is worth noticing that Francis Dunnery, it Bites' frontman, has vocals similar to Peter Gabriel, and guitar play influenced by Alland Holdsworth.
