    I listen mainly to the Blues, tending towards the electric side, but still love a good acoustic tune.
    P.S. I entered "Rock" in the poll, because most of the rock I listen to, IS "electric Blues"

    That's a tough one to answer with the options you've given.

    For example - I listen to hiphop, but r&b (in the modern sense of the word) generally makes my skin crawl - so I can't tick that box.
    I love good funk (especially 60s and 70s stuff)
    You list rock, very general... I'm not particularly into (though don't particularly dislike) "rock" as most people would term it now, but I likes me a bit of rock n roll.
    Where's the 20s to 40s swing option? I mean there's a fair chance I'd be the only one voting for that - but still - haha. That'd be "other" I suppose.
    Then there's Jazz, Folk, Blues, traditional Irish, and a bit of classical too.

    Some of which you listed I know - haha.

    Let's just say "eclectic".

    Some links to some stuff I like...
    www.myspace.com/bluebirdkidclark - Bluebird Kid Clark... Manchester Rock n Roll band. Listen to these guys - buy their album - go to their gigs if you can - good stuff.
    www.myspace.com/beckyhigg - Becky Higg... Bluesy folk type stuff - also Manchester based and pretty good too. I'd suggest buying her album too - it's served me well taking it easy, wandering around Manchester and cruising along the motorway on a surf trip half way across Europe. The same goes for...
    www.myspace.com/gentlemusic - The Gentlemen... Sheffield outfit - varied styles - good music and a blinding voice on the lead singer.
    www.myspace.com/budosband - New York funk/soul/afro outfit.
    www.kingscrosshotclub.com - high tempo gypsy-stomp/jazz/swing group - from London dance to it if you can. Unfortunately the site doesn't display well in Firefox - you might need to *shudder* dust off Internet Explorer for this one.
    www.myspace.com/marsill - Atlanta, Georgia hiphop duo - quality.
    www.myspace.com/timbertron - Timber, Belfast born Manchester resident DJ of the highest order. If your local DJ doesn't jump off the decks mid-set throw down with the bboys in the circle and make it back to the decks to cut the next track - you're not listening to the right DJ. Funk breaks you never heard before 'til you can't move any more - then plenty more where the first lot came from. Legend.

    The list is bloody long - think I'd better stop now before I spend half the day digging up links to post. :D

    Yea, but Giant... You also voted for "R&B" - how could you?
    That's the reason you got the 1st - because I abstained! Haha.

    Goes from the likes of Rock > Classic and too many different artists to name here, but the likes of Alter Bridge, Tangerine Dream, Bonbo, Crowded House, Delerium, Lunik, Crystal Method, Vangelis, Pink Floyd, Joe Satriani and the list goes on and on and on....

    I like listening to early Floyd/Gensis/Fleetwood Mac/Steely Dan/Zappa/Wishbone Ash/Yes/Camel and much more. There is much good music out there. The 60s and 70s is my favourite eras.

    I also like Hip Hop, yes a big leap considering my taste, but hey if its goodf i will listen to it. :)

    augiedoggie The Canadian Loon - LocoAugie (R.I.P. 2012)

    Nice, four others voted jazz. BTW, my jazz is not the elevator type either but the type that sears your brain into mush like Miles Davis, Chick Corea, Ornette Coleman etc. I also like rock and blues and classical. Almost anything really except for disco, techno, rap and hip/hop. There's no music there, just a beat.
     
  24. MellowMan

    MellowMan First Sergeant

    mostly rock of the early 90's nirvana, pearl jam, metallica, megadeth, rush, def leapard, zz top, queen, led zepplien, stone temple pilots, stuff like that.:p

    I've enjoyed Alternative, Rock, and even most music from the early to mid 80s. It might come as a surprise that some of my favorite bands are either from the UK or Australia. (yeah, I didn't think it was a surprise):D

    I love classic rock from the 60's and 70's. I mainly listen to classic rock channels on either Winamp or satellite radio.

    I can't stand those classic rock channels on standard radio, which repeat the same 40 songs over and over. To much corporate pressure from advertisers to allow radio stations to expand there playlist outside the box.
