It would be easier to say what I don't like... Rap, music(?) with lyrics I cannot understand, singers(?) with poor voices (you would be surprised how many rely on digital magic)

Earliest songs - Marty Robbins "Man from El Paso", my 1st '45'; "Duke of Earl"; "100lbs of Clay"; Jimmy Dean "Big John"; Elvis; The Kingston Trio;... With almost 50 years of loving to listen to music, I love it all (though disco was not a favorite time). I even enjoy some opera, though country music seems to be the highest overall.

I have to admit , there have been alot of artists named here that I have not heard.

Unfortunately two of y favorite singers have passed away, but they music will forever live on..... Luther Vandros and Bob Marley. I'm also a big fan of Eu Groov, David Sanborn and Bob James.

What, not one fan of Angus and Company?

"A group of white, mostly middle-class well-off kids who find imperfections in there life and create a ridiculous, depressing melodrama around each one. They often take anti-depressants, even though the majority don't need them. They need to wake up and deal with life like everyone else instead of wallowing in their imaginary quagmire of torment."

Well, I guess I am glad I didn't know about it. :rolleyes: I have no tolerance for people who THINK their lives are bad, but have no inkling about those who truly are in bad situations. Perhaps a trip to a third world country would impress some of them. Why, some of those starving kids don't even have an Xbox!
