Are there any recording artists you just can’t listen too?


For me there is one that has always been top of the list.

Edith Piaf…..l just can’t think of anything worse.

Do not get me wrong and consider my choice is in any way racist….l love to listen to music with songs in any language… Italian, French, Spanish…..

Russian and German can however be extremely demanding, but Edith Piaf (if possible in any language) is a potential harrowing experience.

 

Do any others on here have a similar artist, or artists that can trigger the same physical reaction?

Dual gold Mallorcan...

 A marvel i never heard  really ever all the decades i owned  them...It is sad and a pity created by my ignorance...

Guess why ?

 As most audiophiles hypnotized by the gear price and name, ignoring acoustics concepts and controls,  i studied acoustics only after having sold them (they were too big ) ....Then i owned them but never knew them...

Then i never heard the Tannoy optimal working...I owned them more than forty years...

 

@mahgister 

Oh l missed off an enquiry. 
 

What Tannoy speakers 50 years ago were you talking about. I am very familiar with the range in the 70s. They were named after all things British..just a few…..

Eaton…..college 

Cheviot….hills in Scotland

Devon….the county where l live 

Stirling….Castle in Scotland

Windsor….another castle

Edinburgh….Capital City

and the Lancaster….l think the Bomber, not the City, it was gigantic.

l remember the Lancasters were like huge square radiators in size. Quite imposing and living room unfriendly. Took two people to move them about. 15 inch bass woofers from memory.

 

I love all Philip Glass including film music...

 

 But Akhnaten is so much genius opera... It is a movie in my head when i listen to it...

@mahgister Philip Glass film music

I apologize for my  post defending Philip Glass...

I dislike almost all known popular music...Or i do not like  it enough to listen to it more than a few minutes...
