Thread Name: Have your tastes changed over the years?
Subject: Have your tastes changed over the years?
It occurred to me whilst reading some of the threads here that touch on people's different tastes in folk music, that my own seem to have changed over the years. I've moved away from the traditional unaccompanied style, much of which I respect but now find rather boring, and now tend to prefer either more 'radical' interpretations (Oysterband, Bellowhead, Imagined Village) or the work of good (not always well-known) singer/songwriters.

Having recently purchased CDs of music that I loved in the 1970s, such as early Albion Band and Mr Fox, these now have a rather dated sound that mrsleveller (Jools) finds hilariously 'hippie'.

Do you reckon your tastes have changed over the years…or do you still like the same stuff you did 10, 20, 30, 40 years ago? Or both?
