I like Rednight's taste in music. I don't see even one album on his list that I wouldn't consider a classic prog album. I love them all.

David_D, if you ask me about your list, I'd say that Renaissance- s/t is probably not a classic prog album IMHO. I personally prefer different lineup of the band and their albums released between 1973-75.

The debut album is surely not one of their highest rated, but it's the one I certainly like best.

I'm curious about your name, even I think that I can guess the Red-part of it.

By the way, that may seem to be an objective statement, Enigmatic, while as I see it, taste is a subjective matter. Smile

And you have passion for Gentle Giant in common, while I won't forget his telling me: "stick to your guns, David".

This thread has got really many views even considering the fact that it's one of "mine" (imho), and it might be that somebody gets a reputation as notorious while I think, it would be appropriate with an apology - or what do you think, Cristi? Ermm

I apologized to you twice already in PMs, for accidentally hurting your feelings. But then again you get very easily upset. So if you did not forgive me yet, I give up. Also mentioning me out of the blue, here (Confused) is a personal attack. 

I do not know what I have to apologize for, having a different opinion than you in some context? 

Do you want to find a solution to our misunderstanding in a private message, or do you want it here in the open forum? I could do it either way, but be ready for any results that will come out of that. 

I think you owe me an apology as well. If you don't know why, I could remind you. Do you want me to remind you here or in a PM?

Oh, you're still not over that? 
It was just an observation. Rednight was rude to Paul and you were rude to Rednight. It's just stating the facts.
