Jazz live

 

Dude,
I doubt anybody here will laugh at you.
Your taste in music is yours and that is all that matters.
I didn't mention that I am a closet Billy Joel fan...(Well I guess I'm out of the closet now.) The first record I ever got was Glass Houses and I think I wore off the needle on my dad's record player on that album!!!

 

I'm pretty much a die-hard metal head, I like bands such as Megadeth, Anthrax, Testament, Slayer, Pantera, Rob Zombie, Armored Saint, Tool, Queensryche(metal???),ManO'War and the like. I also listen to the classics, such as Ted Nugent, Zep, AC/DC, Ozzy, Priest, Motorhead. I just got a new AGV helmet, it's quite nice, but I got a small, instead of a medium, so I haven't tried to put my earphones on under the helmet, otherwise I normally ride with earplugs in, as this type of music would, make me ride faster than necessary(just a guess). I also like Techno. Pretty much anything I listen to has to be fast with a good beat. If I want to mellow out a little bit I'll put on some Pink Floyd, or Buckethead.

music

i listen to a fairly wide range of music....lots of blues...a fair amount of jazz,accoustic guitar, some classic rock, but not that much...NO bagpipe music...no rap....no opera.....no effen oboes....very little country:blah:

 

OK this is going to date me somewhat. My favourites:
Late Beatles from Sgt Pepper on
Led Zeppelin :biggrin: pretty much all, love the live version of Dazed and Confused and Moby Dick is just a great drive fast song.
Queen
Pink Floyd, on my fourth copy of Dark Side of the Moon
Most of the heavier more innovative stuff in the 70's.
Then Disco killed my interest in new music for years. Donna Summer Aaaaaargh!!!!!
Then rediscoverd music with
U2
INXS
The Police and the like and more recently Radiohead.

Also like a lot of classical, Rachmaninov Piano Concertos spring to mind and I enjoy a good Italian Opera once in a while.

From the lists of some of you above I can see there is some good stuff I have missed that I need to check out.

Keep on Rocking.

Sorry to reply so late. But, I saw the post and couldn't help it. I was sad not to see my favorite (underated/appreciated by so many, except musicians)... RUSH (from '74 thru '07)

Also, Pink Floyd, Metalica, U2, Jimi Hendrix, did I mention RUSH!!!

 

I've to join in with the "I'm all over the place" people. And like Reg I went digital long ago and move all of my CDs to the computer as soon as they get home. With nearly 8,000 songs in my library there's a little of everything in there. But some of my favorite bands / artists are:

Matthew Good / MGB
Ministry
Tori Amos
Depeche Mode
The Cure
The Blues Brothers

The * indicates my absolute favorites within each genre. I'll put a favorite 80's music list in a while...it's too much to include here.

 

I like Heavy/Metal music best, but some rock also ok.

....

 

And can you believe I actually know people that just don't care much for music! I'm usually jamming at work to some Ben Harper, Jack Johnson, Tool or Billie Holliday and the 3rd shifter that follows me won't even walk in my office due to the music. He stands at the entrance cringing(he's a little odd though). Also on my list:

Harry Connick Jr.
Stevie Ray Vaughn
Rage Against the Machine
Dropkick Murphys
Flogging Molly
Linkin Park
and many many more.

Is it just me, or does listening to Days of the New make you feel stoned even when you're not? I think they were always so stoned it leaches out of the speakers into my brian...

 

I am with some of you that say "all over the map" and my map is VERY large. I have over 1300 CD's so I could never do my interests justice with a short list. But, the basic genres would be classical, jazz, rock, progressive rock, pop, folk, Reggae, Bluegrass, ambient, non western (Japanese, Chinese, Indonesian, Indian, Tibetan, Thai, Caribbean, African, middle-eastern, etc.).

So much music, so little time!

 

i would have to say mostly rock, ac/dc, old kiss, led zepplin, some kid rock. about the only two country would be mr. cash and hank jr. that dude likes to party with the best of them.
