The return of the main theme in "Lady Fantasy" by Camel, and the guitar solo entry in "Forgotten Sons".
The important thing is not to stop questioning.

Mars suite on Mars chronicles is superb. The moments that i thought of first when i read the title of this thread was the end of timeless sleeper bridge - Amon Duul II and the end of Mostly Autumn's Steal away  (For all we shared) both heavy synth endings.

Emerson's synths on Trilogy.
John Bonham's Moby Dick solo.
Rick Wakeman's synth solo wherever he did a synth solo.
Vera followed by Bring the Boys back Home on the Wall by Pink Floyd (Makes me want to cry).

Indeed Jalas, the first part of Trilogy with the sparkling piano work, halfway blended with the fat Moog synthesizer flights...............goose bumps!

Well, for me the quest for goose bumps is what it's all about when listening to music!


Because of this thread I've looked up some albums (which I haven't heard for ages) that IMO contain some ultimate goose bumps moments:

Rick Wakeman - Judas Iscariot (especially the parts when Wakeman is playing the church organ). A few years ago this song was played in the cellar of the Sagrada Familia in Barcelona, just as I was entering the cellar. Goose bumps!!!

Manfred Mann's Earth Band - Father Of Day, Father Of Night and Saturn, Lord Of The Ring/Mercury, The Winged Messenger. Both songs are giving me goose bumps right from the start until the end. Especially when listened to in darkness at quite a volume.
I'm running still,
I shall until,
one day I hope that I'll arrive

A recent one is Tool's 10.000 days, the part where Maynard cries "It's tiome now, give me my, give me my wings!"

VDGG's Still life has at LEAST 10 as well (frightened in the SILENCE...), and Mars volta (who brought me here...) And then Marillion has just too many to be counted..

Oh, my goosebump moments in prog?
Right now Morte Macabre's rendering of "Apoteosi del Mistero"...
Then:
- Ian Gillan's yelling during Child in Time
- The first three minutes in "La mente vola" by Alphataurus
- Tangerine Dream's cosmic landscapes in "Birth of Liquid Plejades"
- mellotron and acoustic guitars meeting in the chorus of "Frutto Acerbo" by Le Orme
- Riccardo Zappa's phased acoustic guitar in the final segment of "Frammenti"
- the WHOLE "Kyrie Eleison" by Popol Vuh
- the piano section in "Waking the Witch" by Kate Bush
and many others I can't remember... ok: "Soon" by Yes
Bye

Let's see:

There's quite a number of ones I can think of--here's the biggest ones for me:

Yes
Siberian Khatru, around the 5:30 mark, when Jon Anderson begins the single-word chanting part.  The part that really gets me is Bruford's snare rolls here, against the otherwise rather calm texture. 

The Gates of Delirium, around the 8:00 mark when the "battle" sequence begins, all the way through the end of "Soon".

ELP
Tarkus, the Eruption section

King Crimson
Epitaph--The last 2 minutes, mainly because of the mellotron and timpani

Larks' Tongues In Aspic, Part Two--The whole thing.LOL

Radiohead
In Limbo--The whole song.  It's Jonny Greenwood's little riff that really gives me goosebumps. 

Dün
Arrakis--The point where it picks up tempo wise.

And I concur with the two posts preceding regarding Floydoid's sig. LOL

... The build up and climax toward the end of Echoes, and any solo in it for that matter. Makes me want to cry.
... Repeatative echo of "Stones" on Animals
... Main melody of Crimson King
... In the Flesh
... "I get up, I get down" build up to organs, and then the organs on Close to the Edge
... "Tell the moon, don't tell the marcher" reprise after Heart of the Sunrise, and Heart of the Sunrise for that matter.
... When Lake exchanges lines with the computers in the third impression of Karn Evil 9:

"I am all there is."
"Negative! Primitive! Limited! I let you live!"
"But I gave you life!"
"What else could you do?"
"To do what is right."
"I'm perfect! Are you?"

On Henry Cow Concerts, near the very end of the side-long Beautiful as the Moon, with about two minutes to go, the band is in a sort of atmospheric improv, and then Cutler starts storming in with the groove in 19 of the main verse.  It sounds like a train approching, about to run you over.  I love it!
