A stupide question - Progressive Rock Music Forum

Only 1000?

This is a good observation, this question of course fits better to Jazz and Progressive Rock.

"Music is a higher revelation than all wisdom and philosophy." LvB

I already have a thousand of prog cds so Jazz and classical it is, thanks a lot.

Progressive rock

I listen to a little bit of jazz.
I also like some classical music (especially Bach, Chopin and Rachmaninov).

Prog is the Rock-Lovers dream
Classical is pompous old-fogey music..........
Now I don't mean that in any derogatory way, but there's the difference between generations...........

To make this question more comprehensible: would you choose a 1000 CDs of progrock or 1000 Cds of Jazz and Classical music recordings .

If you really prefer prog to jazz and classical music, I would like to know why.

if you put it that way..

jazz and classical easily... once you get passed the first 250 prog choices (or to be generous 500 albums) ... they would all start sounding the same LOL

It depends - if I could pick and choose which 1000 albums, then I'd go for the progressive rock choice.
If 1000 albums were foisted upon me, then I'd prefer the jazz & classical option.

Of course you will choose 1000 albums, otherwise my question would be pointless

Would you catch the final words of mine?
Would you catch my words???

I picked jazz and classical.

Over the years I have listened and re-listened to the majority of prog that I own.

More than once I have wandered into the jazz and classical worlds but never really

took the time to explore them thoroughly.

In those instances I have enjoyed everything I heard and really want to get more into both.

My 1,000 CD breakdown would probably be 750 jazz and 250 classical.

Hi,

Just to show you all how weird and silly we are ... if this poll was done 40 years ago, classical/jazz would take the cake fast!

But the majority of folks, have lost the appreciation of MUSIC, regardless of what kind it is, and when you go around looking for "dark" this or that, or "metal" this or that, or "prog" this or that, all it tells you is that you have lost the ability to actually LISTEN to music!

Maybe one day, you will know the difference and what I said ... it's like saying that no one can have the "emotion" of playing on a violin in an orchestra, as opposed to an electric guitar in a rock band -- just because DE told you so! ... that is just so bizarre and out of order, it's not funny ... then you wonder why "musicos" think that progressive and rock music is just a pop song and crap ... because it is, and the people kissing it are still kids loving their favorite songs! It's not even about the MUSIC! Because they can not talk about it as MUSIC!

Music is not just for listening ... it is for LIVING ... you got to feel it to know what's it about! Not being told!

Don't encourage it. It's not like you can get a shot of penicillin and get rid of it.
