Message: [QUOTE="javadoc, post: 2270704, member: 338"] We are fortunate to live in a time when there is an ocean of music behind us. My favorites have been classical (first and foremost), some of the classic rock I grew up with, jazz, musicals, opera, prog rock. I don't listen to "the radio" now, blecchh. About 10 years ago I discovered that the only interesting music (IMO) was coming from the "indie" channels on internet radio. I can't stand rap and its satellite categories. Recently I started investigating what is broadly classified as "Exotica" or "Lounge" music, stuff from the 60's and 70's like Esquivel, Perez Prado, Yma Sumac, etc. And it amazes me how much wonderful, interesting stuff has gone before, which I never knew about. I had also never heard of the, ahem, artist referred to in this thread. [/QUOTE]
