What are your favorite music genres?


Here's mine in relative order of favorites:

Late 60's/Early 70's Psychedelic (Grateful Dead, Pink Floyd, Jefferson Airplane, etc.)
70's European Progressive (Yes, King Crimson, PFM, Ange, etc.)
70's Krautrock (Popol Vuh, Faust, Can, etc.)
60's/70's Classic Rock (Rush, Zeppelin, Beatles, etc.)
Late 60's/Early 70's Folk (S&G, Joni Mitchell, Cat Stevens, etc.)
Late 60's/Early 70's Acid Folk (Fairport Convention, Trees, etc.)
Avant-garde Jazz (Sun Ra, Coltrane, etc.)
70's/80's Electronic (Tangerine Dream, Jean-Michel Jarre, etc.)
80's/90's Ambient Electronic (Pete Namlook, Paul Schutze, Steve Roach, etc.)
Mid 80's to Mid 90's Shoegaze (Cocteau Twins, Lush, etc.)
late 90's trip-hop (Portishead, Sneaker Pimps, etc.)
70's/80's heavy metal (Kiss, Judas Preist, etc.)

I like a smattering of other genres; a little new age, a little Indian music, etc., but those are the main ones. 95% of my music is made up of music from 1965-1978 or so...
