Nigel, as people get older their tastes do 'stabilize' so to speak, but only because as the brain ages it gets set in it's ways, and perception gradually shifts to a completely different scale of time. Younger brains are more dynamic and flexible which can lead to the perception by those older that younger people are too 'flighty' or 'crazy'

Hi, Andy. Sorry to be late getting back.
Steve is a pretty good journeyman musician who has been knocking around the edges of the business for many years.
He lived down the road in Nashville for many years, and his parents and other family members still live there. The three or four years jail time on drug charges probably killed his chances for stardom.
He's been nominated for several Grammy awards, but never won. If he had gotten his head straight, he might have become better, but I understand he has fallen into the talk radio quagmire now.
Creationists have a world of evidence
I listen to just about everything, minus rap/hip-hop/anything related.
Plus, I make my own (usually not the greatest), but here's two out of probably 30 to 40...

Hi, nice songs u got there, very good beats. Personally i like the beat from Two thousand two more but from Bliss i like the melody. But i think u could do a better job at mastering and mixing... mb add some reverb here and there some echo, things like that to add a little more warmth. What are u using to create the music?
Keep it up!
I'm using ModPlug Tracker and some random samples from the internet. There's a better setup in my basement (read: huge MIDI setup), but we only just got the audio interface and I haven't learned Digital Performer yet, but it's not much of a transition from Studio Vision.
I did a Mortal Kombat remix on it a while ago, hopefully it'll convert so I can import it.

This man speaks my language!!
And when he states Genesis, I'm sure he's referring to the days of Peter Gabriel, not when they went Top40 with Phil Collins! Oh and then there's Judas Priest, VanHalen, Triumvirat, and The Who.
Don't make me reach through this monitor to slap you a good one!
You mean they didn't finish when Gabriel left?

I love everything about music (I play guitar, bass, drums, piano, etc.)
Beats searching for something you know. I don't know why I insist on swimming against the stream, but I'm taking the high road by suggesting that maybe the haters on rap, blues, and jazz just haven't had a chance to listen to the best of what those genres have to offer yet.
Hentai ought to check out some Steve Reich - I recommend Music for Eighteen Musicians.
For rap/hip-hop, I like Chuck D, Beastie Boys, RATM (don't know where they fit), and pretty much anyone from the first few years of Def Jam. And NWA.
For jazz, I like John Coltrane, Miles Davis, The Gerry Mulligan Quartet, Jim Hall, Ed Bickert, Maynard Ferguson, J.J. Johnson, Jack Teagarden, Dina Washington, Mel Torme, and Ella Fitzgerald.
For blues, I like Albert King, Steve Cropper (and Otis Redding - any old-school Stax, although that's more R&B and Soul than Blues. Name a Stax tune between 1960 and 1970, and I've probably transcribed it), and Johnny Winter.
For rock, I like Queen (check out "The Prophet Song," definitely a contender), Jimi Hendrix, Eric Clapton (prefer Cream days), Aerosmith, AC/DC, and Pink Floyd.'Welcome to the machine' by Pink Floyd WITH headphone , Come on does it get any better?
Newer stuff: Radiohead, Tower of Power (old band, I know, but they're still touring! Any of the old records with Lenny Pickett are killer), James Brown (I know he died, but I gotta mention him somewhere!), Sublime, any band/musician where their musicianship trumps any spin MTV-bands could produce.
Old, old school and outside-the-box: Conlon Nancarrow, Milton Babbit, Stravinsky, Schoenberg, Debussy, Bruckner, Brahms, Beethoven, J.S. Bach.
Bluegrass: Ricky Skaggs, and that weird kid from Deliverence.
