Music you didn't like at first... but now?


Sometimes, there's a sense of discovery or a kind of magic that doesn't sink in right away. Have you heard something that you changed your mind about and wondered why you didn't get it sooner? What artists/recordings have you experienced this with?

C&W. Then I moved to Nashville.

And I started to think, you know, Alan Jackson's not so bad. Tim McGraw's pretty good. Then I discovered Martina McBride. Whoa baby. Fell into, then out of, love with the Dixie Chicks. Then one day I found myself singing along, in my car, at the top of my lungs to Toby Keith's "Whiskey For My Men and Beer For My Horses". I just had to laugh.
For you Jennifer Warnes fans, listen to her lastest release: The Well. It is superior to The Hunter in every aspect.
Didn't know Warrens had a new album out - thanks, will do. Always liked Famous Blue Raincoat for a few of the songs by Lenord Cohen
Mars Volta. At first I thought they were thoughlessly harsh, but I've discovered that my kid's not such a knucklehead. He played it about ten times yesterday, and by the time I got done eavesdropping I discovered they're complex and fun. Geez, I was a real old fart on these guys.
