..e Except for yourself that is I'd say trouserpress as i have yet to discover a band he likes that i dislike and some of his dislikes is pretty close to what i dislike. + He is excellent at recommendations
Good job trouserpress ------------- http://www.last.fm/user/Fjuffe/?chartstyle=sideRed - [IMG - http://imagegen.last.fm/sideRed/recenttracks/Fjuffe.gif - |

Apart from myself obviously, I would say Tony R, because his favourite band is Rush. He also likes Genesis and doesn't care much for ELP or Dream Theater. It dont get much better than that...

Let's I'd say Baldjean/freide, Trouserpress, and Phillipe. They
have the best taste and can recommend some more obscure stuff, which I

You and Philippe. I think we are the few people to really enjoy Krautrock and bands like Popol vuh which is essential in my opinion. You have wider tastes than Philippe, who dislikes Gong for example, whereas i consider them as one of the very best band. |

sincerely (and i'm pretty serious), the member with one of the best musical taste is ...greenback, a deeply forgotten member in all aspects! glad to see i've never been mentioned in this thread, because actually it does not look like I love tons of varied subgenres like neo prog, symph prog, fusion, RIO, prog metal, zeuhl, prog related, electronic prog, canterbury, italian style jazz, pop, rock, hard rock, metal, new wave, synth pop, disco, house, dance, euro dance, trance, new age, ragtime, dixieland, classical...when i love something, i don't shout it very loud, but when i hate something, that's another story! what i find outstanding is my consistency in hating bands who really sound the same: it looks like i have an internal detector of cheap, gross & insipid music. other members with excellent taste: hibou swinton MCR blacksword gatot

Being taste something so personal and unique, with which we are born but developed from our own personal experiences, it's dishonest to say something different than me.
Each person should believe he/she has the best taste, because it's his/her own one. Ask me who I believe has more knowledge of music and I'll give you some names or who makes the best reviews, but voting for another person's taste, is an absurd IMHO. Iván
