What music genres would you like to explore or have little knowledge of ? - SteveO - 15-08-2011
I have sparse knowledge of contemporary genres in pop,dance,hip hop,country,classical and folk but I am trying to keep up. I am currently interested in British folk music.
I appreciate all genres of music so I am always interested in new sounds. It becomes overwhelming at times however since I don't just focus in on one artist or genre,,,I'm all over the place except for the genres mentioned previously.

Classical for me
Love it, yet seldom listen to it.
Why? it's so hard to sing along with.
Retired, but still not enough hours in the day.

I'm exploring Hip Hop currently.
I have a few discs; Some Eminem, De la Soul, Dr Dre, but need to dig a bit deeper.
There'll still be a fair bit I don't warm to, but there is some good stuff out there.

Here it is complete--set aside 40 minutes and convince yourself: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zFA0FYQo0Gg << On everybody's Top 10 list of albums to get folks to know what jazz is about--without being in the least stuffy or anal-retentive, it contains well-integrated elements of every style of jazz since the '20's, frequently in the same song. Charles Mingus deserves his place in the Pantheon for this, if nothing else (and, natch, there was plenty, plenty else).
