That's pretty much me. Prog and metal, with classic rock making up most of the rest.

I accidentally read that as 'Geek music' and thought to myself 'that guy must be into FF soundtracks and J-Pop'.
 
 -- Ivan


Nothing wrong with FF soundtracks - there isn't much better game music.

As for J-Pop, I have a lot of X Japan, but they're more rock/metal...

My collection isn't very diverse, there's the usual all around prog sub-genres, a fair bit of metal and a lot of jazz. Some Greek music too...

Forgive me , I couldn't resist.  Steeleye Span or Steely Dan? - or a tribute band that covers folk tunes in a jazzy way or jazz tunes in an old fashioned folky way???

I'd have to agree witth you, Jen. I have wide taste in music, but choose to only have albums I really want to keep because I'll play them often >> so I am fairly selective.
 
 I have resold more albums than I own today. And since I have the Belgian Mediatheque at my disposal (their catalogue is rteally impressive), I can choose to rent the albums I wish to hear but not own.
 
outside the scope of this site:
 
But I have some classical, some pre classical, some folk, some pure jazz, some indian and some chanson française (Brel, Nougaro, Aufray, Cabrel etc...)
 
In rock styles: blues rock; 70's metal; 60's psych, some trip-hop (but more 90's than recent), a few acid-jazz (again not very recent)
let's just stay above the moral melee
prefer the sink to the gutter
keep our sand-castle virtues
content to be a doer
as well as a thinker,
prefer lifting our pen
rather than un-sheath our sword
