Which artists do you just not get?

Nrchy - You plucked out two ringers that I was trying to think of myself. PJ just grates on me and I've tried several albums on numerous occassions. KD's got a great voice but I just can't get into her songs for some reason.

Tomryan - I'm still laughing about the Red M&M's! Reminds me of that great Kevin Spacey film, Swimming with Sharks. I do happen to like some of Springstein's music though. Just shoot me.

Enjoy Nirvana at times in small doses, as I do some other 'unlikely' bands when you consider my broader tastes. In those realms I do really enjoy Tool and Filter in small doses if I'm in the mood. These kind of unlikely preferences keep me way open to all kinds of music. I'll always give something a try, at least a few times.

Not a fan of opera overall, but have heard and been drawn to many gorgeous passages of opera music, and performers whose voices defy confinement. How could you not be moved by someone like Cecilia Bartoli?!

Kublakhan,

I didn't take your comments to mean you were arguing or debating! Not in the least. I don't know much about Coltrane, the man. My comment about "it's people I don't get" was meant to be a little tongue-in-cheek and to refer to people in general, not anyone specifically.

As for Coltrane, I know and love his music. All I know about him otherwise is that he had a heroin problem for quite a while, but that he became very spiritual later.

Opera, country, angst-ridden music. I listen to music for enjoyment, not to hear someone whine, cry, moan and groan about everything in life. That's probably why I like a lot of instrumental, rock or jazz; they spare me of the miseries.

You didn't care for Diane Schuur and Maynard Furgerson??!!! I don't get it. If you have set parameters concerning music..it would be out of most parameters... but for me... I loved it... and I don't know either one.

frank195, Diane Shure was awful, but that's just my opinion and I'm realistic to know that "one man's treasure is another man's trash." I really dig Maynard, but this was a mistake. Anyway, my Dad liked this CD and he knows more about music than I'll ever know.
