I've always liked the best from all genres of music. I was big into the blues based rock of late 60's into early 70's. Growing up in Ann Arbor I got to see bands like Stooges, Rationals, Mitch Ryder, MC5, etc. as a young adolescent. Later on weekly trips into Detroit, saw most all the big name acts. And then disco came on the scene. I had one set of friends and various relatives who loved it, kinda of a regular at various Ann Arbor venues and the Roostertail in Detroit. Also trips to Florida and New York City would always entail Disco nights. I remember some awesome times completely exhausting yourself with what seemed liked endless dancing till the end of time!
On the other hand I had a set of friends who despised disco, rock remained their sole interest. While I continued to enjoy rock, I also thought it had grown stale, arena rock was taking over and I was still attached to the early more blues based rock of the earlier era. I still love the earlier rock, probably into mid 70's, kind of blah about everything later. When new wave replaced disco I was again happy, disco was wearing thin.
And then there have always been other less popular or more regional genres, classical, blues, jazz, country, I love the best of all these. Don't forget pop music, Frank Sinatra, Andy Williams, etc. and easy listening, Percy Faith, Mantovani, etc., love all the best of these genres as well.
And now we have 90's up new genres and sub-genres of music, regular new finds on Tidal and Qobuz. I listen and enjoy the best of probably every genre of music ever conceived, my playlists reflect that. Right now is the best time ever to be an audiophile and music lover!
