  POLL: Favorite styles of music, ok stuff, dislike?
Many types of music are readily available.
Each of use has favorites: Classical, Rock, Jazz...
And perhaps some we really only listen to if politeness demands... and a few one would need earplugs to stay in the same room!
-----------------------------------------------------------
POLL QUESTION: What are your favorite types of music?
Second? third? etc. What forms are tolerable but you would not buy? and what types do you head for the door?
-----------------------------------------------------------
For me: first desert island music is Classical... Always loved classical music since teen. Preferences within Classical music: Mozarts Operas, Beethovens chamber music, Bartok/Stravinski, Debussy...
Second has been Rock, In Rock I like middle of the road stuff, Beatles, girl groups, Dylan (no heavy metal)
but I would say recently I have been learning about Jazz, and Jazz, from 1930 through 1969, is now my most played form of music. I am still learning about Jazz so picking favorites is hard. Some single items that stand out: Benny Goodman's 1939 Carnagie Hall concert. Miles Davis Kind of Blue, and Sketches ...
Stuff I am so so on is country,reggae,world,folk.
I am not willing to bear Thrash rock, most rape (though J.J.Kool is sort of listenable... Easy listening (Lawence Welk)
So this is the idea: list the stuff you like....
