McDuck 0 #2 December 20, 2005 Not today. Today is a Jack Johnson day. I lurve me some "Taylor". That initial guitar riff is wonderful. Sorry, didn't mean to divert your thread.

mailin 0 #8 December 20, 2005 Where's the puke icon? Most of zappa's stuff is such crap! My husband is one a HUGE zappa kick right now - and as a classically trained musician almost all of his stuff makes my skin crawl. Some of his instrumental stuf I can stand, most of it I can't. I totally understand why he was never mainstream. As far as me I'm listening to a classical compilation album - currently playing Vivalid's concerto for two mandolins.

tso-d_chris 0 #12 December 20, 2005 I like Beethoven, especially his Ninth Symphony, preferably without the chorus in the last part. His Fifth is definitely a classic. I also like Mozart pretty well, for the mellower times. Wagner's Flight of the Valkyries is also a favorite. Mostly the classical music I listen to is whatever is on NPR when I'm driving. The contemporary stations appeal to me less and less these days, due mostly to commercials and the DJs. For Great Deals on Gear Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lindercles 0 #15 December 20, 2005 Zappa cracks me up. Sort of like a Mike Patton before there was a Mike Patton. Zappa was the first person that made me realize that not everyone at the time was a hippie, or even tolerated hippies. Gotta love that. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
