Thread Name: Is the best music an acquired taste?
Subject: RE: Is the best music an acquired taste?
I'll dig out my cassette of the 10,000 Maniacs again, eh ? I also listened to it once.
I have an on-going problem with music and taste because my man and I are from completely different cultures and he cannot stand just about anything I like. Ok, it's mainly my folk music that drives him mad, but even more pop-type-stuff always causes a problem.
I will listen to anything he puts on, and I can enjoy that as much as my stuff. I think he has the problem, not me, because I think I was exposed to all sorts of music when I was young. On the other hand his knowledge of music is limited.
It sounds trivial, but I can assure you it isn't ! Sometimes I would give the world to live with a person that appreciated my taste in music.
