WTF is Concrete Blonde?
Now I know why you don't understand the need to have it all with you all
the time. Your listening moods aren't eclectic enough. You can be
satisfied with a few hundred songs by your "favorite artists".
There are those of us who have no "favorite artist". Before portable
hard drives I would burn CD's to listen to at work. 10 hours of MP3
music per CD and I'd carry several. A single CD might contain
Rachmaninoff, AC/DC, Norah Jones, The Cramps, Mendelssohn, George Jones,
Concrete Blonde, Elton John, Donna Summer, Michael Jackson, Britney
Spears .....
You get the idea. I don't listen to a specific genre or set of artists.
And what I want to listen to at any given moment in the day may change
dramatically.
I actually do have eclectic tastes. For R&R, though, it ends around
1984 and for C&W in ~1993, and never got into rap or whiny 90s stuff.
