I don’t care for trumpet at all. It’s just too “blary” for me. Not really a word but best way to describe it. Most of my dislikes are genres as opposed to specific artists. Opera, Country, Rap, Death Metal, just don’t do it for me. Otherwise I’m pretty open minded, oh, and any pan flute artist!
Albums you do not get...a plea for help and understanding
So like most of you (I bet), I listen to tons of music. But there are just some albums I never learned to appreciate. I hope this thread can serve as a teaching tool. I did not get Mingus at first but now he is one of my favorites.
Perhaps ending each post with, "What am I missing?" would be a good idea.
I will start with Graceland by Paul Simon. Most of my friends call me crazy (still after all these years...OUCH that was bad) but I never desire to listen to this record. I get the African influence and rhythm but it just does not impress me. Alternatively when Peter Gabriel did the African influence thing I found it stunningly good. Paul Simon as a musician impresses me in his other works. What am I missing?
