Music/ bands

[RichardHarris123]

Hello all.  A post earlier get me thinking about music/ bands.  What are you into? I  have a very eclectic taste ranging from thrash metal to classical, both in small doses though and most things in-between.  If I  had to listen to only two groups on pain of death, simple.  You've probably never heard of them, both Dutch by coincidence, Epica and Within Temptation . You'll probably think I'm weirder than ever now, hehe.

The wife and I are annual subscribers to the local symphony, so classical is definitely appreciated. Favorite composer would be Edvard Grieg. We also have a local Jazz festival every year. I'm a big Chuck Mangione fan and would also include Pat Metheny in my top 2 jazz performers. There was an English band in the '70s called Renaissance that I still enjoy. Heck, I'll even suffer the teenage angst of Taylor Swift from time to time.

Im all over the place. Lots of different types of music. Im a guitar player though so I gravitate back to Led Zep and Jimmy Hendrix. I think thats cause its the music I like to play.

My desert island song is Blessed Feet by the Tord Gustavsen Trio. Piano jazz. Some sort of Scandahoovian going by the name.

Always love Norah Jones. We grew up in the same time and place, went to the same university (briefly for her part). I worked in a music store in high school that I'm sure she got music from given market and location, and I'm sure our paths crossed, but she wasn't famous then and would have just been another face in the crowd.

Melody Gardot is another good one. Dave Brubeck for the odd meter. The Bad Plus. Just about anything that grooves on odd meter and a bit of dissonance. If it doesn't have something to challenge, it's just kinda boring.
