You are quite a fine person, and I am very fond of you. But you are only quite a little fellow, in a wide world, after all.

Well this is a great idea and one that is going to take some serious thinking. Before I come up with a list for here. As you said in a previous post the person who thought of this post as had a great idea…

Music Is Live

Two people are better off than one, for they can help each other succeed.



Keep Calm And Listen To The Music…

Okay, it's not definitive since there are TOO MANY factors to consider... I'll try my best though. Bolded are prefered if it has to be one.

Canterbury - Caravan
Crossover - Mike Oldfield
Eclectic - King Crimson / VDGG
Experimental/Post Metal - Cult of Luna / Neurosis (I haven't listened to maudlin in years though)
Heavy - Anekdoten
Indo - none
Fusion - The Mahavishnu Orchestra
Krautrock - Amon Duul II
Neo - Marillion
Post Rock - Godspeed You! Black Emperor
Folk - Jethro Tull
Electronic - Tangerine Dream
Prog Metal - Queensryche
Space - Pink Floyd
Avant - Frank Zappa
Italiano - Museo Rosenbach / Il Balletto di Bronzo
Symphonic - Genesis / Yes (this one is just nasty)
Tech Metal - Death
Zeuhl - Magma
Related - Led Zeppelin
Proto - Deep Purple

I'm certain in only a few categories... Zappa is a slam dunk, so is Oldfield, JT, Magma or GY!BE, but after that it gets murky. Especially that some subgenres are only occasional listens in recent years. I have to spend more time with Canterbury Scene this fall!
