Randomly, I clicked on this out of curiosity.

Thanks! I have to sub teach MUS 207 "American Popular Music" next week, and my knowledge of this particula idiom is, uh, sketchy...  :-[

shhh.  i used to like country western.  just to chill. 

i'd say classical music is about all i listen to now.  love classical guitar music.  today, it was some kind of trumpet duo that vivaldi orchestrated.  classical music is the best.

other music is background music to me.  when classical music comes on - i stop everything.  i cannot sleep at night if the radio is playing classical.  why cannot my brain turn off?  i have to know three things.  what the piece is.  who is playing.  and analyze the performance or the form of the piece.

I've started to develop a taste for country.  I couldn't stand it for so long, it feels weird typing it... country music.  But I'm not talking about the stuff on CMT.  Stuff more like Blue Rodeo.  I'd list more but I can't think of any other examples, hahah.  But I can dig when certain country music comes on public radio.

Older, classic country like Hank Williams is good...folk, bluegrass, blues are all nice too.
