Don't forget that Peter Hammill had a compilation LP called "Love Songs".  I don't know who he thinks is going to sit on that awful couch though.

My wife loves Jethro Tull, so TAAB from the list. But for a prog album on a date? The Moody Blues' Days of Future Passed has always been a splendid choice.

I think if i wanted to get rid of a woman i'd put Peter Hammill on but to seduce her with it ? Are you kidding !
I knew one very attractive girl who loved Zappa but i think overall i'd go with the majority and pick Caravan.

That's pretty close-minded


Well, I'd at least want a girl who had a considerable overlap in taste with me

My ex used to really respond to the sadder Steven Wilson/Porcupine Tree stuff like `Buying New Soul', `Don't Hate Me', etc, but I remember listening to their instrumental improv P.Tree album `Metanoia' and her saying `You have to stop playing this, it's so boring....it's like...nothing music'

At this point I was like `You know, I don't think this is working anymore....' lol!

Only kidding!

But seriously, this list is so strange, I couldn't imagine really ANY of these albums `impressing the ladies' much. God, one listen to Peter Hammill's screeching theatrical tormented rants and they'd run a mile!!

All I gotta say is:

'Don't Answer Me' - Alan Parsons Project. With that painful adult contemporary jazz sax solo and the maudlin, 1980's cynical romantic love lyrics, you can't go wrong here, m'boys.

I'd say Trick of the Tail. It's got some nice accessible tunes like Ripples, and the girls are more likely to recognize and like Phil Collins. Although as a young person, I don't think I'd risk playing prog to a likely partner.

Some of those album titles...Thick As A Brick, Free Hand, A Trick Of The Tail, One Size Fits All and especially If I Could Do It Again, I Would Do It All Over You...may not be the best choices for a date.LOL

Since we're on the subject, its my birthday this weekend and I plan on getting my (girl)'friend' to pose in my ProgArchives t-shirt for my avatar. This text from her will be my new signature:

"Koenjihyakkei... I'm sorry but is that really legal to be called music.. 0_0"

LOL
