I haven't given any Zeuhl a proper listen yet, but it's on the list... "pretty much anything weird and psychedelic" more or less encompasses my tastes as well.

I'll have to go with prog metal, though symphonic is pnly a fag paper behind.

Prog Metal, hopefully I'll have a little message that says so beneath my avatar to acknowledge that sometime soon.

Symphonic followed by Italian and Folk.  I also like Moody Blues (Proto), Floyd & Hawkwind (Psychedelic/Space).

But I'd like be me more into the Jazz/Rock Fusion sub-genre.

I dabble in just about all the sub-genres but my interests lie mainly in Symphonic Prog, Psychedelic/Space and Prog Metal. Though I am very much into Jethro Tull, I can not in all honesty add Prog Folk to my strengths.

I'm more of a Zappa specialist as opposed to an Art/Neo specialist.

RIO I suppose, though I'm sure many on this board know a lot more than I do.

Maybe that should be my new surname as a Special Collab... I'll look into it.

Alucard and I need to get our titles changed to Canterbury specialists as well, since we're the only two who feel they are up for the job (at least so far....none of the other collabs have volunteered yet).

Yeah, we don't have any Neo-Prog specialists either, do we?

I'd say Tuxon, Hibou, and Greenback were specialists, but no one has the official title yet.

Yeah. We still need Art Rock specialists, Avant-Garde specialists, etc. All we really have is Symph, Prog Metal, and Syzygy is a Zeuhl/RIO

Dick Heath's jazz-rock/fusion, and Alucard and I are officially Canterbury, but yeah, we do need others for those other genres. I think having these kind of titles helps other forum members in relation to reviews, recommendations, etc..., because they will be able to ask about certain bands, or get recommendations, read reviews from Collabs with the similar tastes.
