I wouldn't have listened to them before but I gave them a try and now love them. I also didn't like Jazz before.. now I'd say it's my third favorite genre after indie/alter. rock and lo fi.

But what genre did you get into eventually that you hadn't in the beginning? Chris: Those are two classic soundtracks! Re: John Williams: anything I can get my hands on written by him, I try to get. Don't know of many composers whose music you can identify within a few bars. Dee: I’m more into the classic country stuff and not so much into the current pop/country ones.

It apparently drove my Dad nuts because he finally yelled "You're just listening to that because it was in a movie!" Well, yeah. But that "hook" resulted in me listening to some music I would have missed out on otherwise.

I agree with genres and what images come to mind as you think of them. When someone says Country, I immediately think Cowboys. And I still can't get myself to listen to it. But I've managed to get myself to listen to a lot of stuff that I didn't normally listen to, and I'm really glad I did as I've discovered some great music that I now call 'favorite'.
