What type of music do you listen to (genre, artists, songs)?

[Ofnuts]

About in that order:

• Folk music (traditional or not) from the British Isles and North America (and some from the rest of Europe)
  
• Rock (Rockabilly to Metal)
  
• Blues
  
• Classical (up to the 50s)
  
• Country (when it doesn't fall into the self-caricature it has become) and the fuzzy genre called "Americana".
  
• Jazz (up to the 60s)
  

Since I am a fairly eclectic person it could be faster to define what I don't like:

• Music I can't whistle (Rap, free jazz, modern classical)
  
• Singers (i.e. music where the singer is more important than the music, the lyrics, and the accompanying band). There are exceptions, but not in he R&B genre.
  

Favorite artists: a whole graveyard of them... Lemme see who is not dead yet: Eric Clapton, Bob Dylan, Mark Knopfler
