If you've seen the last part of the "20 of your great UK Prog classics?" thread, have you found it humorous?

I can't comment on that thread as I already made my Exit, along with the Lemming, but I can say that if you're looking for humour, then Exit the Lemming's offbeat album reviews are some of the funniest on ProgArchives.   Wink

LOL

Well, honestly speaking, I found his contribution to "Prog : just music or a part of a certain culture?" pretty funny, as well, so I don't think that he would be happy to see my conclusion there.

Yes, just like some of my album ratings, which can appear as a riddle, wrapped in a mystery, inside an enigma, as someone famous once said. Wink

You seem to think that it doesn't matter that much how the terms Progressive Rock and Prog 
are used, Paul, but I'm sure it does. Smile

You're right on both counts. It doesn't matter to me, but it does matter to you. Wink

Yeah, it does - even I think about which approach is the best one. Smile

That my tastes in music are unique, and I don't think anyone could argue with that. Tongue

Then we have pretty much in common, afterall Smile - at least if taking it as a fact.

Another thing, I think we have very much in common, is very including music tastes.

Although it's not always easy, I generally try and avoid petty disagreements over which particular music genre a prog artist belongs in, or whether or not they're prog. The main thing is that they're here on ProgArchives. 
The more the merrier in my opinion. Smile
