Prog tracks that you feel get too much hate...

I like "Moonchild" as well, but I have to be in the right mood. I used to love the album it's off, then I kind of went away form it for many years as I got interested in other things, and now really enjoy it gain.

My choice would be "A Plague of Lighthouse Keepers". Yes it is very acclaimed by some but it also is much loathed by others. I have found it surprising just how polarising it is amonsgt Prog peeps. I think it's brilliant. I also have seen some people say here that they love the first half, but not the second. I adore how the suite evolves, it's shifts and changes, and how it ends. When it ends I just want to play it again. I guess all things are apart, but then again, all things are a part.

Every single Allan Holdsworth written tune.

Not an appreciated solo artist at PA.

For whatever it's worth or not worth, I like this:

I used to play IOU, Metal Fatigue, and U.K. so much that I wore out my tapes.
Allan Holdsworth was an incredible artist. I also have his book on Melody Chords.
Intricate chords and such an interesting legato style … almost like a saxophone in terms of fluidity.

These days I’m listening more to band-centric energetic music that is less focused on virtuosic soloing as the spotlight. I’m not taking anything away from Holdsworth by saying that. His songwriting is elegant, spot-on, and unique but it’s not my current focus at the moment.
