I guess Homer seems to be fan of Pink Floyd, and is though enough to hear some good prog metal... but in the other hand, Lisa has taste for the Jazz Fusion and that kind of things... So... I go for Homer... what do you think about it... enjoy...!!!

I'd say Lisa - she has better taste and more sense than anybody else in the whole Simpsons universe.

Homer is more into proto-prog and prog-related (The Who, for instance).

We know Ned Flanders is a huge Beatles fan (They were bigger than Jesus).

Smithers...he'd like Queen.

Lisa is definitely into the Jazz Rock thing (why isn't Bleeding Gums Murphy in the database?)

And Mr. Burns would not care for such a cacophonous racket...release the Hounds... of Love...

Homer did mention ELP once, and the Alan Parsons Project ('which I think was some sort of hovercraft') but not that hes a fan... I'll go with Lisa just because her love of jazz and classical (i think shes into classical...) could lead her into prog.

Flanders would be a fan Neal Morse and as Robert stated he loves The Beatles.

Comic Book Guy seems like the best candidate while Lisa might also like it.

Jeez. Sorry Robert, I'm a bit out of it (read extremely tired and fried brain).

Actually, I would probably say he wouldn't, because Neal Morse is not a Trinitarian.  Wink

Bart I can defantly see liking DT, but since Lisa plays the sax I can see her liking symphonic stuff.
