They are certainly a high peak ... in the mountain chain which is prog music.

Normal? And people tell me I have weird tastes.................................................

By normal I meant things that aren't to do with traditional prog - more bluesy and jazzy acts. It wasn't a negative thing!

 

I certainly wasn't reading that in a negative way, don't worry (and thanks for the support), but I'm still trying to translate "normal" in this context ? BTW check out my first show of the season tonight at 8pm bst for some more "unusual sounds":

Danbo, Joren and Dick Heath get my votes
People are puzzled why I don't dig the Stones, well, I listened to the Stones, I tried, and I tried, and I tried, and--I Can't Get No Satisfaction!

I'd say Easy Livin, Trotsky and Dick Heath have the best taste on the forum- although its fair to say that from the reviews they've written, I seem to have similar taste.

sincerely (and i'm pretty serious), the member with one of the best musical taste is ...greenback, a deeply forgotten member in all aspects!

glad to see i've never been mentioned in this thread, because actually it does not look like I love tons of varied subgenres like neo prog, symph prog, fusion, RIO, prog metal, zeuhl, prog related, electronic prog, canterbury, italian style jazz, pop, rock, hard rock, metal, new wave, synth pop, disco, house, dance, euro dance, trance, new age, ragtime, dixieland, classical...when i love something, i don't shout it very loud, but when i hate something, that's another story!

what i find outstanding is my consistency in hating bands who really sound the same: it looks like i have an internal detector of cheap, gross & insipid music.

other members with excellent taste:

hibou

swinton MCR

blacksword

gatot

All this thread really does is make people who aren't mentioned feel bad about their taste.

Anyone who likes creativity has got a good musical taste.

And that's why I don't like punk.

I'm working on the principle that no one's weirder than prog fans. Except maybe krautrock fans

Being taste something so personal and unique, with which we are born but developed from our own personal experiences, it's dishonest to say something different than me.

  • If you vote for a person with similar taste to your's, then you're only chosing a reflexion of your own taste.
  • If you vote for a person with different taste to yours, than you have no taste at all and don't know wat you like.

Each person should believe he/she has the best taste, because it's his/her own one.

Ask me who I believe has more knowledge of music and I'll give you some names or who makes the best reviews, but voting for another person's taste, is an absurd IMHO.

Iván
