Seat68 Posted October 23, 2015 Share Posted October 23, 2015 I appreciate that he probably has an audience of one on here and that's probably me. That said the new George Strait album Cold Beer Conversations is possibly his best in a decade. Never got into all those 'hat acts' - George Strait, Vince Gill, Alan Jackson, Garth Brooks, et al. All seem a bit 'Nashville production line' to me. Prefer the likes of Tom Russell, John Stewart, Micky Newbury, Guy Clark, Terry Allen, Butch Hancock, etc.I know what you are saying, parents influence I suspect.

Have you any idea how old my parents were? My mum's idea of good stuff was The King and I and The Sound of Music, and my dad never showed any interest in anything. It's me, I'M the parent. The artists I listed were coming through when I was in my 20s and 30s. I have however, have passed that stuff onto my own kids! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mjmooney Posted October 23, 2015 VT Supporter Share Posted October 23, 2015 just out of interest mooney what music are your kids into?Very wide range of stuff, but pretty similar to me - 60s & 70s music and contemporary music in that tradition. One leans slightly more to folk, country, rock and blues, the other to jazz (vocalists), pop, soul and reggae. Where they differ from me is that they have a total blank for classical, instrumental jazz and prog rock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seat68 Posted October 24, 2015 Share Posted October 24, 2015 My daughter likes a little country but is mad for female fronted symphonic metal, nightwish, within temptation, delain. She has always liked metal, we used to go to a lot of hardcore gigs together 10 years ago, but she now likes this sort of nonsense. Back on topic, this morning the soundtrack is ocean rain by echo and the bunnymen. Wife chose it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
