every generation has their "great" music era. people born in the 50' will say rock & roll & rock, those born in the 40's will say big band, dance, swing, people born in the 20's will say the best was ragtime & classical & on & on.

This is true, but my appreciation of music is rather eclectic, although acquired gradually as follows:

1. As a child I got a record player for 45s and liked everything from Syncopated Clock and Little White Duck to Battle of New Orleans and All for the Love of a Girl.
2. My parents played classical symphonic music, and my dad played Chet Atkins songs on guitar, both of which I liked.
3. In church I liked the hymns and walked the aisle to songs like Just As I Am and Love Lifted Me.
4. When I got a radio in my room as a teen, I liked the Top Forty songs on KOMA at night when reception was good.
5. When the Beach Boys were played beginning in 1963 I loved their music, and I also loved Doo Wop, Girl Groups & Folk.
6. When I learned how to strum guitar, in 1967 a friend and I did Smothers Brothers imitations mainly for church functions.
7. I liked the British Groups but loved Pet Sounds, and then I liked the CCM music of various people in the 1970s including Bob Dylan.
8. I also loved Bread, the Carpenters, Cat Stevens, the Who, Simon & Garfunkle and the rest who were played on the same stations.
9. I loved Inna-Godda-Da-Vida and appreciated Master of Puppets but did not care for much hard rock until introduced to Night Wish.
10. Later in life in no particular order I also encountered and liked blue grass, early jazz, and the gypsy music of Blackmore's Night.
11. Shania Twain was the one who got me to like country music, I liked Hilary Duff, and got a kick out of "Lips Are Movin".
12. I also came to like the Crooners of the 1940s, and I like many instrumentals such as the Ventures, Classical Gas & Dueling Banjos.

Sorry, but you got me reminiscing in my ipod and I could not stop.
I guess the only genres I will never like are rap, singng I call growling and anything that promotes un-Christian values.
