Eclectic tastes indeed. I don't know a number of those, tho it may be because I don't "do" names as effectively as some. There's a better chance I'd recognize the tunes. Here, my top three genres are EuroDance/Trance/Electronica, Smooth-Jazz/ Ambient, and Manga/JPop/Gamer/C64 types. I'm not much into rap or country, tho I'll listen to some once in awhile, but I like classical and /love/ Bach, enjoy upbeat oldies (BeachBoys, 50s/60s dance like Chevy Checker), get into good organ, harpsicord, drove my coworkers crazy one Christmas season with Bluegrass Christmas <g>, enjoy world/newage/folk, listen to reggae, shoutcast in some JPop, Korean, German, French, Russian or Polish once in awhile, stream Eurovision channels once in awhile, have a collection of Contemp Christian ranging from Testament and Stryper to Petra to Amy Grant, was a member of a Praise and Worship CD club for awhile... like 80s pop singers, particularly female, such as early Madonna, Cindi Lauper, Belinda Carlisle, Laura Branigan, Samantha Fox, throw some Concrete Blonde in their too... -- Duncan - List replies preferred.
