Thread Name: musical snobbery
Subject: RE: musical snobbery
Well while I have great respect for "3-chorder & capo guitarists" - who can play 3 more chords than I can - it is still a limiting factor in the type of music that can be produced.

All the same, "technical limits" inspire creativity - my umpteen register switch squeezebox still is not as favourite as some of the smaller ones with fewer capabilities - you have to work harder.

Briz31 TV was playing some Foster & Allen sound clips (I think they get them very cheap!) - my mother used to quite like them - I don't mind them at all, but then I like to listen to Opera too, but not all the same diet all the time - I like variety. I also grew up on Jazz, Cream, Joplin, Hendrix, and Metal Head...

If it's Good Music, it doesn't matter to me what style or type it is.

I've heard people do Sting songs at a folk evening...
