What about the stuff King Crimson and Rush did during the first half of the 1980s? Oh wait, this is stuff we don't like. I'm not too fond of Magician's Birthday by Uriah Heep. A step down from the previous two albums, with the title track being on the cheesiest pieces ever to emerge from the genre.

yeah, sometimes,you can't predict yourself Decades ago, when i first heard Triumvirat's two last "pop drivel stinker" albums A La Carte and Russian Roulette, i never thought i would ever bother with them ever again, but in the last couple of years, on returning to them recently, i have developed an affinity for them, and actually do like both albums.

There are quite a few I dislike However, there is one that takes the cake. I'm talking about Yes - 90125 Horrible, bad 80s music in my opinion.
I do very much enjoy Close to the Edge and Fragile though.

Dream Theater is just about the only prog band I really hate. It's probably because they have the resources to make excellent music, but then proceed to do everything they can to make me hate their songwriting.

Thanks ... I love that ... but you do know that history is not exactly a strong point here, right?
The answer to the above question is NO, btw ... the only music that I have never loved yet, is the music I have not heard yet! The only music I don't like? ... the one you haven't played yet!

If you can sit through a few minutes of their album with that huge orchestra, you will find that .. if anything ... there is some serious musicianship here ... and while it might not be the best prog, or could be over rated ... it takes a very special musician to do that and have the courage to do a lot more than just a very simple rock music ... and as such it deserves the accolade as serious music -- or at least in my book ... very progressive, since most rock bands are just an idea.

Btw ... I noticed Sheet Music listed in your list ... and that is one of my all time favorite albums ... but don't forget to play ... ohhh donna ... from the previous album next to it! ... and if you want to have fun play Neil Sedaka, and Hotlegs and then Ramases ... because you already know who the musicians are!

Oh, they have musicianship all right. Lots of it. And I acknowledge that they are progressive and serious. I just can't stand most of their songs is all.
