here's a nice one to start the week off - wonderful though prog rock is, it's always nice to have a break and play something different sometimes..... personally i occasionally like a bit of jazz or classical on a sunday evening for a change, or a bit of britpop or beat music now and again, so i thought it might be interesting to find out what some of our prog loving members like to listen to other than prog.....if any!

your votes and comments appreciated!

You shouldn't lump R & B in with  rap and hip hop.

Greats like Marvin Gaye,Sam Cooke,Otis Redding and Ray Charles don't deserve to be associated with that garbage.

Some metal, some rock, some soul, some ambient, some punk, some 70's, 80's and 90's pop/indie etc..

Whatever appeals to my proggy little ears!

Whole lotta opera fans, yet only person voted for classical.  Peculiar.  I don't know any opera fans, and my uncle is the only person that I consider a classical fan.  I know several people who enjoy classical as background music from time to time (myself included), like during dinner for instance, but I wouldn't consider those folks classical fans per se.  When not listening to prog, I like hard rock from the 60's to the 80's.  Bands like Led Zeppelin, Black Sabbath, the Who, the Beatles (from Revolver on), Traffic, Iron Maiden, Rainbow, Deep Purple, Eric Clapton, and so on.

99% of the metal I listen to is progressive, so therefore I choose classical.  I've been into hundreds of metal bands in every genre, but I don't care too much for those bands anymore.

I picked classical.

So many opera fans around? I'm not exactly among them.

I like some jazz, some hard rock, some heavy metal and some world music, too.

Progressive rock is my #1, especially the vintage keyboards drenched Seventies symphonic rock. But I also love to listen to :

flamenco guitar like Paco De Lucia/Paco Pena/Juan Martin

Sixties rock like The Doors,The Ventures, The Shadows, CCR, Spencer David Group, Jerry Lee Lewis, Chuck Berry, Love Jefferson Airplane, Elvis Presley, The Rolling Stones)

'guitar oriented rock' like Ten Years After, Led Zeppelin, Rory Gallagher, Santana, Wishbone Ash, The Stray Cats

folk music from Roumania, South-America, India

classical piano and - guitar
