I'm all over the place on this one...

Overall I'd say my favorite music is folk music from around the world. Anything that gets a leg hopping up and down. Having said that...as a way to remind people of some of the old stuff...here's a sampling of other music/artists that I enjoy (in no particular order)

50's rock - motown, the stuff you heard on American Bandstand (like 'James, Let the Ladder Down')
German folk music as well as hiking music
Early Beatles
Locomotive Breath from Aqualung
Various movie stuff - Chocolat, Cider House Rules, Last of the Mohicans, Little Women
Fleetwood Mac
Crosby Stills Nash and Young - particularly 'Woodstock', 'Almost Cut My Hair', and 'Deja Vu'.
Greatest hits from Patsy Cline (love her)
Greatest hits from Dean Martin (lots of memories)
When it comes to folk music - stuff like you hear from 'Oh Brother Where Art Thou'.
Good banjo stuff (originates in Ireland I'm told)
Ozark Mountain Daredevils
Elton John
Western Music (Rawhide, Clint Eastwood movies, Liberty Valance, old classics)
Santana
Simon and Garfunkel
Enya
Joan Baez
John Denver (Annie's Song makes me cry. Was our wedding song). I was not happy he split with his wife.
Tina Turner
Stevie Wonder

Beethoven, Holst, many many other classics
Marches of all kinds (having drown up on army bases and Dad was in the band).

That's enough...so much more to mention.

But to answer your question Mosey...NPR  ;D

Oh...quickie joke I just heard...

Deja Moo

Bullcrap I've heard before
Carl (aka Zee) Will sometimes respond to 'hey' but never 'hey you'.

Now being a redneck I usually listen to the classics too, Marv. Southern rock classics. Skynard, Marshall Tucker, Allman Bros., Charley Daniels, Eagles and the likes. I also like classic country, not this whiny Taylor Swift crap. Merle, Wille, Waylon, Strait, Coe, Jones. Ain't nothing like a long neck bottle and a crying steel guitar 8) I may be a little partial to the country, the old boy that wrote Tennessee Whiskey and The Chair and many, many others and I will reunite and be neighbors and pals again for a couple of months in the morning.

Y'alls Redneck

Well, it's not easy to find on the radio, but I prefer Mingus, Mulligan, Getz, Holiday, or Son House, Johnson, Crudup, (take that Eric) but never Coltrane. (The soprano saxophone is not a musical instrument).

When I'm not listening to the voices in my head, I'm listening to chips flying.
I rarely listen to music any more but when I do it's usually traditional Irish music.
