Nothing of gruesome.
I put it so: As it is the Prog album that I love so a lot want all of the costs is buried in my grave so that can listen to it also in the afterlife?
Sincerely it is a question that I am place at least hundred times... And how answered I have had a list... Uhm... Choosing I believe "Rainbow Rising" or "On Stage" (Rainbow), "Argus" (Wishbone Ash) or "Venetia Et Anima" (Donella Del Monaco & Paolo Troncon; Opus Avantra Ensemble) or" Fragile" or "Close To The Edge" (Yes)...
And You?

Oh my, that is hard. I'd have to die very many times to be able to get
all my Prog favourites with me to the afterlife (provided there is such
a thing). If I had to choose one, I think I'd go for Art Zoyd's Musique
pour l'Odyssée right now, but tomorrow my choice could be different.

Not *in* my grave ... hopefully I live long enough to get a grave with a tombstone that plays my favorite music. Microsoft recently filed a patent for interactive tombstones, showing holograms or showing video clips about the people that were buried there.
Which album to choose? Well, Celtic Frost - Monotheist would be cool.

Just please don't pick Therion's Deggial and listen to Enter Vril-ya in your grave, The Dark Lord could be atracted to you, and may invite you to join you in Hades... And that's MY privilege!!!
Also, don't pick Morbid Angel and listen to "God of Emptiness"....Even Satan himself would be scared....
Again, don't pick any post........ or you won't wake up to actually see either The Dark Lord or just the Good Lord (OK, stop the hate, I'm kidding, stop the madness please )
Seriously, if you have music in your grave, I guess you better want something that can help make you rise up. (of course, I don't know how to beat the physics of having to deal with solid wood but, anyway). Now, i'm not saying we should put dance music in there, because probably they won't let you in in any of both the White or the Black clubs.... But let's pick something like....
I would really have some classical in my grave. And as far as prog goes, I'd have to have DT's SFAM, Explorer's age of impact, and a few more.
time to write that on my will....

too morbid a topic for me. but if I have to choose, record all the albums we own + a lot that we don't own, put them all on a gigantic CD and play whole albums from it at random

not an easy choice to pick the album in which to spend eternity
listening to... but this one is fairly easy. Not my absolute favorite
prog album.. favorites change.. but this one.. has been a favorite for 20+ years.

has quite possibly my favorite song ever on it... good enough for me hahaha

Well when the batteries run out, the tech geeks say it "dies", therefore it'll go to the afterlife with me.

hahahahha... let me do the math...
god knows how many albums and CD's.... more albums that I
have to listen to each day because of this site.... a strong
interest in music outside of prog.... and an early onset of old age .. and oh yeah.. a stubborn refusal to give up my vices = time to start planning! my brother hahhaha

I don't believe in aferlife, so I would want something of the following to happen for my vinyl collection as i cease to exisit:
- given freely to my friends or potential children not yet existing
- sold as a complete collection for a sh*tload of cash
- given't to a record collection to some archive whichs owner would value them
I wouldn't want to ruin any artifact being eaten by worms!

yeah, I've been told he actually likes boy bands.... He likes to do stuff with them 
That's why he keeps on losing with the Good Guy Upstairs.... instead of supporting his own, he tries to satisfy other appetites....

I think I would have to have TFK - Flower Power.
It is my second favourite album, after The Lamb, but I think it would be more suitable for a - cremation in my case - as it is more cheerful than The Lamb! 
Porcupine Tree - On The Sunday Of Life, would be another choice too!

That's because NOBODY likes prog metal. No one of importance, anyway.
