Hey Frank.
I listen to all kinds. Everything from Benny Goodman to ZZ Top
Generally, my number one station is set on newer country. Next is a mix of
70s-80s-90s and third is the Jimmy Buffett station, after that is Old Time
Radio and Comedy.

CDs, generally a mix of stuff like ZZ Top, my own burns of mostly what I
call driving music, (hard, fast beat, no screaming, no screaming guitars
either, and words you can understand and sing along -very off key- with.)

Let me see... favorite musician.
Now THAT is a tough call. For just MUSIC I mean -to listen to- I really
enjoy Kenny G. Manheim Steam roller too.
For Country, almost anything from about the mid 80's to present.. some of
the new stuff is really fun. I hate tear in my beer music.

For driving, I liek things like Foghat, Thorogood, Z Top, Fleetwood Mac,
Neil Diamond (Oh yea, I'm 40 something LOL) I don't think I HAVE a favorite.
I loved Jim Croce, the Carpenters, Simon and Garfunkle, Creedence Clearwater
(sp) and so on..

Now.. why do you ask?

AND

How about you, what do YOU listen to?
Who is YOUR favorite artist?

Now Frank, You KNOW I am going to head down to Serra Jeep, where they
pretend to love me and always hug me when I come in.
I am going to tell Rob, the service manager, that I want him to do this for
me since they swapped out the single disk player with the 6 disk changer and
HE is going to look at me and say something like:

Ms. Selby, you have GOT to stop screwing with me like this!

And I am going to tell him that Frank posted it on usenet, so it must be
true.

Just Curious :-)
What a coincidence. Your tastes are very similar to mine.
I like everything EXCEPT disco, opera, and especially rap/hiphop.
Jimmy Buffet!!! huge fan saw him twice. once in MountainView CA
next in Toronto Canada. I'm missing my "Had to be There" Album
Probably one of my fricken Nephews took it. buggers :-(

I guess my favorite (at the moment) is Chet Atkins.
especially his later stuff. (When he got into Jazz kinda stuff)
If you haven't heard it and like guitars. Ya gotta listen to
the Chet Atkins and Les Paul re-released double album CD
called Chester&Lester/Guitar Monsters. Awesome
Cheers
