what kind of music

[wolverine]

What do you listen too.

I'm selective about what country I listen to and I don't like metal but otherwise I have a lot to choose from in rock. Don't listen to punk, so substituting jazz would give you my spectrum, not my choice. so boo.

I like all types of music as long as there is talent involved. I dont like most rap but I do like some of the newer stuff from Nelly, Ja-Rule, and DMX. I've mostly been listening to stuff like Disturbed and Nickelback lately. Was a mullet wearing hairbanger in the 80's. Metallica is still one of my favorite bands. Listen to some but not all country. Like Clint Black, Dwight Yokam, DAC, and Toby Keith.

Love Stevie Ray Vaughn, Kenny Wayne Sheppard, etc.

Over all pretty diverse tastes.

Mostly classic rock and roll for me.

Santana, Stones, Led Zep, Who, Rush, Queen, Steely Dan, Skynrd, etc.

SRV, Kenny Wayne Sheppard, Robert Cray - love those blues guitars.

Also like lots of guitar music - Steve Vai, Pat Travers, Joe Satriani, Jeff Beck, Clapton, Al Dimeola, Chet Atkins, you name it -

Jazz and jazz guitars too - Steve Morse Band/Dixie Dregs, David Sanborn, Spyro Gyra, Dave Grusin, Grover Washington Jr, Larry Carlton, Chick Corea, Yellow Jackets, George Benson, Lee Rittenour.

Not much for country, metal, punk or rap. Old Police and Talking Heads is about as punk as I ever got - Van Halen, Nugent, Black Sabbath - old metal is it for me too.

I'm impressed...A Love Supreme isn't the typical "bought it at Starbucks so I could say I listen to jazz" album.

I'm in awe that someone has mentioned the blues and not BB King. Is he mandatory? No. But I still can't see how someone would not like what he brings, he pretty much was the blues in the second half of the century.
I dunno. Call it country rock in that case.

BB King -

Magnus I love the guy. I saw him live about five or six times. Last time was last year at one of those traveling blues shows with Kenny Wayne Sheppard. The ol guy still has it too.

My wife even got to party with him one night way back when. She hooked him up with a girl she worked with that loved BB.

But I just realized that I don't own a single CD/album by him.

Guess I'll have to go do something about that.

I can settle for you ripping his stuff off online. That's what I did. Live stuff over studio stuff.

Ornette Coleman makes that CD look like the Manhattan Transfer.

Blues, Chicago the best.
