Which artists do you just NOW get?


A while back, I started a post about popular artists that I just didn't get. I thought it would be fun to turn it on its ear and ask about artists that you didn't understand in your (perhaps) misspent youth, but that you have acquired a taste for over time or maybe just recently. Same rules apply. It's meant to be fun. And a little revealing. Please don't make fun of anyone but yourself.

As for me. I have never been able to stand opera. But I find that I've recently developed a taste for Sarah Brightman. And Bocelli.

The Allman Borthers. Always thought they were mostly southern rock, and I hate that. But no, they are blues rockers, jazz tinged, and fabulous musicians. Great, intricate percussion. Live at Fillmore East is what hooked me. Long jams that do not get tired. I recently heard them in concert, and I must say, it was the best R&R show I've ever heard.

Yes, Doc Watson, but he's not a new discovery to me. Simply brilliant misicianship. Purity of tone, taste, precision with soul. Simple, affecting delivery of a lyric too. Get "Doc and Merle Watson's Guitar Album" for some stunning picking.
