Some folks do seem to have a prog fetish ... have a look what's written on this gentleman's T-shirt (I don't know who he is, but he has Dutch accent and he is into Tinyfish).

For me, many fine guitar solos from Roine Stolt gives me that feeling.  Also, that Swiss church organ played by Rick Wakeman on 'Awaken' from Yes-GFTO...

yeah definitely get that spine tingling feeling that spreads to my back and head/hair but I agree with previous poster that it seems to happen less and less.  It happens in the presence of divine melodies which prog and prog folk have in ample supply both other songs can do it too like "Everything I Own" by Bread.  A 3 minute pop masterpiece.

I did today while listening to Knots by Gentle Giant. One of my absolute favorites.

I listened to Pink Floyd's Animals this afternoon after years and years of not listening to it and I have to say Gilmour's solos really hit me as hard now as they did when I was listening to Pink Floyd more frequently. He just had a way of cutting right through the music and sting the listener one agonizing note at a time. Smile Of the newer progressive rock music, the song by White Willow called Paper Moon really got to me, especially that very simple guitar solo from Jacob Holm-Lupo. Many of Steve Rothery's solos can have a lasting effect on me and I guess they do or I wouldn't be talking about them. Wink His solos in Runaway, The Great Escape, Hotel Hobbies, Jigsaw, Season's End, among others. Sorry to be so guitar-centered, but I've been a guitarist of 21 years and I can't help but listen to what the guitarist is doing. Of course, I love other instruments as well and for the last 13 years or so I listened to more piano, violin, trumpet, saxophone (alto, tenor mostly), vibraphone, etc., so it's refreshing to be getting back into the guitar again.

Yes, I get tingly feeling from Prog. It moves in a series of caresses that glide up and down my spine. Like Mirror Image it's the guitar contribution that really does it for me. Sometimes also too it might be a good groove like Barazinbar by Jade Warrior or various sorts of Prog music with lots of different mood swings.

Just happened a minute ago, during Pink Floyd's "One Of My Turns".

I was just listening to something that went like this:  boom - boom - chicka - boom, and I got a tingly sensation all over.  But I don't think it had anything to do with the music.  Tongue
I can understand your anger at me, but what did the horse I rode in on ever do to you?

  Yes, recently with foxtrot. Not uncommon, usually at a particularly great transition.

Yes, but possibly only with Genesis, King Crimson & ELP. There are others in parts, but these are my "main men" so to speak.

Yes, that is the eternal search is for those moments, chord progression, sound, etc...  Usually a deep low moog/mellowtrone in the right place will get the hair standing on end with the goose bumps.  IF it is really good, the tingling in the top of the head...Star
 
Funny, mood will play a part too, one time a song will do it and other times the same song will not...must be ready for it.

Or, maybe, it's an asthma attack?

King Crimson's Fracture. 
The whole thing is just building anticipation of something...
Especially the section just before the final section with the guitar swells and then it bursts into life.
Allomerus. Music with progressive intent.
