I tend toward classical and celtic music and don’t let me forget Ted Nugent. Zappa always facinated me for reasons difficult to explain for those who don’t like him.
Zap was probably one of the first fusion musicians, or precursor of that genre. Throw in his “innovative” lyrics..how could you not like him? (Well, most of the time.)
I love all music. Since you mentioned Celtic..how about Loreena McKennitt?
