Well, let's just open up Pandora's box a have a look inside to see if there are any toys in the attic shall we? I enjoy a broad range of music which begins with mostly prog. rock but also includes such things as singer songwriter music like the livestream concert this weekend from Ariane Lydon to without a doubt the absolute best version of Leonard Cohen's Halleluja I have ever heard from any artist anywhere by a guy from Minneapolis named Andrew Newton. The guy just understood the song.
From there we can move to British folk which includes music from one of the best female singers of all time, Sandy Denny and Fotheringay. Then on to electronic music from artists such as Brian Eno, Redshift and Wave World and piano from Phillip Aaberg. I don't really care too much for traditional jazz but I consider Patricia Barber to be one of the most creative jazz artists alive today. I also enjoy music from Andreas Vollenweider.
I like guitar shredders such as Buckethead and Slash but also Tony Levin, Adrian Belew and the Oracle himself Mr. Robert Fripp. I also can't leave out Robin Trower. I like blues but don't really listen to it much. A little Keb Mo and of course Mr. John Lee Hooker. I also enjoy female vocalists from Janice Ian to Joni Mitchell, Tori Amos and Natalie Merchant, Patti Smith and Bonnie Raitt. I'm equally as comfortable with anything from Acoustic Alchemy to Alice in Chains to Southern rock and jam bands. What I don't care for is Rap, Hip Hop, Traditional Jazz, Opera, Pop and Country......although I like The Band. That ought to be enough toys to keep one busy for a while!
PS. Did I mention world music such as Afro Celt Sound System and Aurora? ;-)
