Hey I’m 73 what do you expect
No surprise to anyone, I’m sure - but:
Heavy Metal
Hard Rock
and for an outside my normal box pick…
Folk Rock/Singer-Songwriter stuff
Hmmm
Old metal
Hard rock
Seriously though - anything from Judas Priest to Motorhead and all points in between. With maybe some Hard Rock for quiet days.
(edit - maybe some Goth rock)
Boomer here
Blues Lots of real old stuff
Hard rock 70s through 90s
R&B Stones Beatles to Pappa Chubby, If you ever want to see the most timid Bass player possibly ever check out papa chubby “sympathy for the devil” Odells legends at the 11:25 mark Love chubby but never saw this Bass player again.
Well I haven’t posted in awhile. But if I had to pick three.
Blues
Rock n Roll
Jazz
Right on, @jclay. Those are my faves, too.
Jazz Disco Blues
Easier to say what I would not listen to: Lawrence Whelk, Noise music, Musak. But I suppose it would have to be jazz, funk, and good acapella (nothing better than a bass singer being a bass!) Wait, but that leaves out my favorite 60’s music. How could I live in a world without Hendrix?
Neo-psychedelic/Post-punk
Folk (Irish, Hungarian, Andean)
Later 60s (post-)British Invasion
Oh cool. So stuff like XTC and The Church?
- Rock (very, very broad)
- 80/90s Hiphop
- Techno
Runner-up: ska/reggae
Nu Metal
Alternative
Funk
Yeah, @howard–I’ve been listening to XTC’s tribute to the late 60s, the Dukes of Stratosphere, again, and it’s great. I liked the Church (but got sick of that one hit “Under the Milky Way” real fast) on LPs prior to their breakthrough, as in the extended songs on “The Blurred Crusade.” This is a fun mindgame. I realized I got most of the inspirations that the Dukes took correct long before I found this list. Plus one of my all-time fave producers, the prolific John Leckie, manned the soundboard as he regularly did for XTC…
- 70’s/80’s “classic” rock
- 80’s/90’s “alternative” (both goth and grunge)
- Punk
- “120 Minutes” which, to me, covers the 80s & 90s dark/alt/grunge
- R&B, including hip-hop and rap
- Start a mix on YouTube Music with Bill Withers “Lovely Day” and anything that comes up over the next 5 hours
120 Minutes was so good it almost makes up for them inventing Reality TV in the same era
almost
It would take a lot to forgive The Real World SF
(Welcome Back!!!)
