Music
 

I see we have covered all time favorite love songs and duos, but what about groups/bands?

I personally like the old ones like:

Mtume
The SOS Band
Manhattans

OZZY OSBOURNE

He just gets better with age!




OZZY Rules man....:D (sorry teenager coming out of me..:D :D :p)

Kentucky Headhunters
The Tractors
BR549
(all country, but with a fast beat!!!):cool:

"...but what about groups/bands?"
 

Temptations (emperors of soul)

MJQ (Modern Jazz Quartette)

Garth Brooks
Pink Floyd
Van Halen
Meatloaf
Bob Seger

and I know I'm gonna get ripped for these next ones, but as a former Keyboard player, I grew up playing their stuff:

REO Speedwagon
Styx
Journey
Asia

And though a different genre for the same reason

John Tesh

Nutworld
 

I was with you till Tesh!:D

Re: Nutworld
 

LOL..I kinda figured that the last one would be the bomb dropper of all time.

I'm not so much into his current stuff but his energetic
rock/jazz/classical influenced stuff from the late 80's early 90's..ie Tour De France stuff was great to drive/work out with.

But like I said, his is all keyboard based stuff and thats what I playe(d), so thats why. He used alot of classical/jazz in his music and i was trained as a classical musician as a kid.

My grandkids love NSync and also somewhat of the Backstreet
Boys.You don't want your grandkids to live as wildly as you did
so I think that NSync is a good role model for them.
I used to likeThe Rolling Stones,The Eagles,Dr. Hook,AeroSmith,
Bob Seegar,early Elton John,etc.My motorcycle cutoff(Retired)has
a patch(many)on it still of a butterfly.I always liked the concept
of the Elton John song-"Butterflies are free."I used to wear that
cutoff to my probation office just because I knew that my Probation Officer hated it. Irish
P.S.My oldest daughters son is 9yrs. and her daughter is 7yrs.
He has a small motorcycle and she has a small FourWheeler.It
must be in the family blood.My daughters grew up riding behind
me;so have a healthy respect for bikes.

for favorites, they happen to be what I grew up on... these are the ones I end up singing along to and not realize it...

- Huey Lewis and The News
- Phil Collins (Genesis)
- Billy Joel

more towards today I have moved over to country

- Garth Brooks
- Conefederate Railroad
- Trisha Yearwood

on the odd side of things that I really really like to play loud

- Nine Inch Nails - but only the "Pretty Hate Machine" album, after Trent's work went down hill quickly (at least I think so)
- Fugazzi - "Waiting Room"

and then what I listen to when I get home from work and am enjoying a nice cold beverage (preferably of the single malt variety :)) -- these are what I really really like to listen too!

- Beethoven - you can pretty much play any of his stuff and I am going to like it - but, "The Pastoral" (6th symphony) is one of my all time favorites
- Bach's cello suites (the recording done by PBS of Yo-Yo Ma playing these is awesome)
- Dvorak's Symphony No. 9 "From the New World"
- Bach's piano sonatas

yeah... that about does it... all over the map (but no rap, sorry)....

So many of my favs have been mentioned, but I cannot believe no one has mentioned...

THE BEATLES!?!?

also the Animals (introduced me to lots of older blues acts)

and the best thing happening in music today...
Dave Matthews Band
