Old school soul

Otherwise I like just about everything else.

Too much popular music is boring, unimaginative, and poorly performed. Love opera as long as it's not Verdi or Rossini or so-called "crossover" singers like Andrea Bocelli, who sings flat. Don't care for rap, hate country.

Rock is my backdrop, the music I loved as I was growing up and beyond and is my #1 go to. Pink Floyd & Allman Bros. are the top 2.
Blues is the next music I fell in love with. SRV being far and away #1.
Breezy Jazz - love Spyrogyra

That's pretty much everything except rap and Death Metal Mariachi.

I think Linda would kill it with some Death Metal Mariachi. She had the pipes to belt it out when needed back in the day.

I like clear,pure voices.

Here's Tuba Skinny of New Orleans

Slayer, Dark Angel, Kreator etc.

I grew up listening to British rock The Who, Zeppelin, Prog rock like ELP and Pink Floyd. I loved the singer songwriter of the 70's early 80's. I got turned onto the Eagles and similar music along the way. I listened to shoe gazer music and was a big fan of Jesus and Mary Chains and My Bloody Valentine.Tuned into Grunge (at 40) in time to get turned onto Nirvana, Pearl Jam and STP . I like emo, My Chemical Romance and Bright Eyes the alt pop of Death Cab For Cutie and The Killers . I love the punk rock/ pop rock songs of Green Day. I am leaving out so many genres and bands. I am a million different people from one day to the next! Not trying to be obnoxious. Music enlivens my spirit, feeds my soul and saves my sanity especially during times like this. I don't know how I'd keep my head on without music. Right now I am listening to more indie folk from The Lumineers and Mumford and Sons to the Hollow Coves, Lord Huron , Sleeping at Last, Novo Amor and The Paper Kites. More than you wanted to know? Sorry you asked? Peace Oh and Eddie Vedder I don't know I would do with out you!

My 5 favorite groups:
The Who, U2, The Patti Smith Group, Springstern, and Midnight Oil.

The B-52's are just below these 5. Kate and Cindy! Fred's cool, too, but Kate & Cindy harmonizing!!! Their song "Roam" is my 2nd favorite song, still! 🥰

Seen these groups many tiness. Seen around 225+ groups, performers over decades.

Also from way back some Supremes, Mayfield, Sly & and The Faimly Stone, and Gaye.
Waaay later (I remember 2 hits by the group) my sis had a Mavis Staples record. We got to see her in the '00s, or '10s.

I don't like heavy metal, in general "hair rock".

Fan of the original CBGB's bands: Patti Smith Group, Television, Talking Heads, The Ramones, Blondie.

I some what keep up by listening to WFUV-FM Fordham U's radio station which I found in the late '90s. When I moved to Brooklyn in '01 I almost never could hear it, except sometimes in tbe winter. When I moved to The Bronx I finally remembered to listen again.

But with MSNBC on TuneIn I've listened waaay less in the past 2 1/2 yrs, and must make time again, which I'm slowly doing.

Punk rock- The Clash, Gang of Four, Bad Brains, Fugazi
Post-rock- Godspeed You! Black Emperor, Explosions in the Sky, Mono (Japan), Shy Low, Bruit
Pop and pop-rock- Olivia Rodrigo, Taylor Swift, Lorde, Gracie Abrams, Meg Meyers
Crank wave (a type of post-punk)- Yard Act, Squid, Porridge Radio, Dry Cleaning, Black Country New Road, Sulk

And my current obsession who doesn't really fit into any one genre but could be called Southern Gothic, Ethel Cain

The Fixx, Talking Heads, Utopia, INXS, etc.
Though I'm partial to the jangly rock like Smithereens or Gin Blossoms.
Before the 80s in was prog rock & glitter rock. Yes, Bowie, Tull, Mott The Hoople, and so on.
As a kid, I was playing jazz piano, so other than the biggest names, I didn't know enough bands to have a favorite genre other than jazz piano players.

Am not fond of elevator music or much pop, rap, abstract jazz, and atonal music.
Will listen to anything once.

Hank Williams SR Forever!
