Essential Muzak This is where I list the stuff that I like to listen to. As far as I am concerned, there are only four types of music; the stuff I listen to, the stuff I have not listened to yet, the stuff I really hate and the stuff I am prepared to tolerate or ignore. |

Progressive Rock Stuff - that being the music that encompasses long tracks (often as long as a side), great musicianship and complicated arrangements. Click on Rick to go and see - don't forget your velvet loons. Heavy Metal Stuff - Loud power chords, Guitar Solos, crotch grabbing, spandex clad lunacy abounds here. Click on Beavis and Butthead to go and Rock. The Really Weird Stuff - This is perhaps the best music you have never heard - click on Mr Zappa to go see. The Beatles Stuff - the cornerstone of any good CD collection; Liverpool's finest

Jazz Stuff - I only discovered Jazz after listening to a Radio 2 programme about the Blue Note jazz label. I suppose this is closely related to Progressive Rock - long pieces, complicated etc. Click on Louis Balfor to check this stuff out - Great! Nice! Ambient Stuff - mainly concerned with blokes (usually German) sitting around more than enough technology and making nice long, melody free pieces in front of suitably impressed young chaps. Click on the mini moog to find out what the hell I am on about. The Really Normal Stuff - at last; some stuff you have heard of. If you click with Sheryl Crowe you can go and have a look as close to the mainstream as I dare go! |
