The first song that jumped into my head was ELP's From The Beginning, so that's the one, absolutely amazing! 
I look up, I'm almost blinded

by the warmth of what's inside me

and the taste that's in my soul,

but I'm dead inside as I stand alone...

I can't really decide because most of the progressive music I listen to is acoustic. I guess I'd have to say that any of the solo classical guitar compositions by Steve Hackett would be my favorites.

I've actually been on a search for more acoustic prog to suit this moody autumn weather, but to little avail.

Far from an acoustic song, but the intricate flatpicking at the beginning of Thick As A Brick has to power to give me multiple orgasms
I'm so mad that you enjoy a certain combination of noises that I don't
