Hopelessly behind the times

I liked Janis Joplin even though she came along after *my time*. Actually, I liked Scott Joplin, too:) And I liked Don Williams, Crystal Gale, Johnny Cash... But my real all-time favorites are Mozart, Haydn, Vivaldi. Sometimes I like to listen to Gregorian Chant because it's soothing. I could listen to Wynton Marsalis play his trumpet or Barry Tuckwell on French horn or Jean-Pierre Rampal on flute All. Day. Long.

My SON used to listen to Lincoln Park! Never really "got" it then, either.

No, Floyd is my go-to for when I'm feeling TOO good - they bring me right down ... thankfully.
 
when I'm time hopping I like some AC DC

oh yeah & ZZ Top of course being a Texan ;)

oh I have to add I was a HUGE HUGE Cat Stevens fan

Never heard of Bruno Mars either... In fact.. I wasn't even sure they were singing a song.. Didn't sound like one to me.

I often wondered the same about many of the old time singers of which I still enjoyed a lot of their music, especially Dylan and Joplin and Cocker. Some consider those artist music and voices grating to the ear, All relative as Phil said. :)

I should mention, I didn't hear the half-time concert, so fall all I know it might have not sounded much like they were singing any songs. But for the most part, I do enjoy some of the music of all the artist mentioned in who participated.

*Disclaimer.... No artist were physically harmed in the making of this post.
 
I agree, some of that old time rock & roll does get a bit edgy, but I'll always love the Beatles, Stones and Clapton, then of course Cream, Zeppelin and the like, too many to mention. I listen to ambient music if I want to 'settle down and be meditative, but can get a bit boring after a while, so I switch back to psychedelic rock and some old time jazz to cheer me up. Also if I'm working on some art or sewing, I put on some Erik Sate which is very very nice.
