Thijs van Leer's second flute solo on Birth sends 1000s of conflicting emotions rippling through me. Incredible moment.

Just trying to break the utter tedium of the front page! I know a sensible topic is a bit hard to stomach, these days!

Anybody got anything worthwhile to add?

Here's one description of what Prog Rock is all about:

"It's not just ear candy for entertainment's sake, this is music that invites thought, empathy, sympathy or all of these - it compels a response".

An emotional response!

Me? I'm a sucker for Fish-Era Marillion.Even listening to cheesier material like "Sugar Mice",I respond to the plaintive lyric "Your Daddy took a rain check" and the powerful guitar solo.

Sometimes it is just parts of tracks that really excite me like where the "church organ" comes in "Total Mass Retain" on CTTE or the drum roll at the end of "Of The Battle" on the live version of "By-tor & The Snow Dog"

Goosebumps anyone?
