These results are not surprising so far with Rock and Hip Hop at the top, and World, Reggae, and Funk being close seconds!

This just goes to show, at least with the small amount of data so far, what I've always known to be true, and that is that stoners and other "turned on" people have a very good, wide selection of musical stylings that they enjoy.

Oh, and, let's keep Funk up in the top ranks, shall we? ;)

Its all about the Blues & good rock & roll from when they knew how to party!!

They trashed hotel rooms and lived the life back then. Nobody sold out to corporate interest or allowed their music to be a commercial jingle. (it is today but they lost control over their library to the corporate bean counters)

Back then, visa would not have anything to do with rock & roll and today, they whore it out for profit.

They call it classic rock & roll and package it like chips on the shelf at the local store you buy for muches.

I like it pure when the lyrics were poetic and our protest about the "man" had to be under the radar.

Not like today!

Even Metallia is junk and crap. Did you catch that movie...talk about rich whiners!

Even their last concert we went to sucked and good pot did not help one little bit.

Let me know if you want to know how I feel? LOL


Great show dude.

Peace

Baroque music is strangely my favourite at the time, it is one of many favourite styles. in classical musk I do not like any thing from the later periods, any thing after the rococo period I just do not under stand. besides early music I like hard rock (iron maiden to my dying bride) psychedelic and kraut rock, trance/Goa-trance/chilout, Folk music (the dubliners - Hedningarna), and so on. as one get older and the record collection go from LP's to CD and on to MP3 and so on, the amount of styles and genera's one likes grows (like fungi in the fall) ;)

baroque is also my chosen classical style cereus! it seems so ornate and decorated and after having played flute for the last 17 years, also my favourite to play, even if it is on a silver flute :p

I feel obligated to say that cannabis has opened a whole new world for me as far as reggae and it's derived genres go. Several years ago smoking helped me truly appreciate Dub style reggae for its trippy reverb and echo. I've especially been turned on to the fathers of reggae dub King Tubby and Lee "Scratch" Perry. Without cannabis I never wouldn't have understood the vast complications of the true Dub masters and simply would have written that type of Reggae off as simple echos.
Also given the fact that both King Tubby and Lee Scratch Perry created complex Dub loops using simple analog tools makes me appreciate them even more. This was music inspired by cannabis and can (in my opinion) be appreciated the most while on cannabis.

On topic though, I listen to just about anything as long as its had a little bit of buffer time after its release. I mainly listen to music from the 50's to the 90's but I listen to very little current music unless it's instrumental. I'm a big fan of international music such as indian musicians like Debashish Bhattacharya and the Icelandic Sigur Ros.

When did Wu Tang ever get outdated? Ghostface killa, Method, and RZA are always doing something. I was going to see Ghostface and Shaquan at the pitchfork music festival but they were on one of the more expensive nights so I gave up.

RZA just dropped his solo ProTools I think and I can't wait to here it. He's a genious.

M.E.T.H.O.D. ... man!

Yeah i was basically wrong in saying that, i meant wu-tang as a whole but even they released a CD last... decemeber i think? is that when 8 diagrams came out? and RZA's solo is called digi snacks, GZA's next CD is suppsoed to be called Pro Tools I believe

One genera I missed on the list was Ska, the offbeat reggae relative always makes me full of energy and smiles.

And of topic BB I also play woodwinds mainly clarinet, recorder, and Bulgarian kaval. I ain't that good at playing but it is medicine and great fun. but I like to build instruments so I do have a growing collection early woodwinds and bowed strings. some are crude experiments some are professionally made. but my paying job stops me from building all the things I want, but a baroque or Renaissance flute is something I would very much like to build when I have the time.

Yeah I'm a big fan of Ska as well, i actually play drums in a ska band at the moment. And i know i probably dont even have to say anything about this man but i must mention Bob Dylan, what can I say the dude changed my life and i feel i must mention him anytime my tatse in music comes up

Well me three like a wide range of music, but with good reggae, just knowing that it may have been written and/or performed with ganja floating around makes it fit the stone perfectly.

I check marked almost all of the boxes, for me its not so much about the style of music, its about the quality of it.

that said, props to podders for Escape from babylon, ive still got that one in regular rotation, how about some type of encore? I think it would fit nicely as an episode of potheads coffee shop

Mostly, but not necessarily, guitar based stuff. I'm such a dinosaur.

I'm sorry to say a lot of dance music sounds like banging on pots and pans with aliens landing in the background.

I just downloaded the Harder they Come soundtrack, and more Maytals & Toots to add to my collection. I like the Peter Tosh song "Wanted: Dead or Alive" and Cypress Hill "Dr. Greenthumb"
from Pineapple Express Soundtrack.

Though I'm always experimenting with different music because I'm a massage therapist and I can use it at work to help induce healing and relaxing states.
