Kahz,
I'm a youthful 44! I actually like all sorts of music and love to teach my students to dance to the music from the 50's to the present (including cumbias and corridas). One of my dance teams dances the jitterbug and swing while the other one performs to contemporary music from Janet, N'Sync, etc...
Just call me Coach
Off topic>What music styles do you like?
Bell,
I agree with you though, I hate "bandas" and "musica grupera". This is only my taste, of course (en gustos, se rompen géneros). <img src="smile.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle> I grew up in Mexico City and there is a saying in Central and Southern Mexico that implies that Northern Mexico has "no culture". <img src="tongue.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle> This is not true, of course (not by the meaning of culture), but I will assume you understand what I mean. It's a joke. <img src="wink.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle>
I love Agustin Lara (sang by Toña La Negra, heavenly!), and I like Latin American music and singers such as Carlos Gardel (Tango de Argentina, my father is a Tango lover and he sings it beautifully as well), Silvio Rodriguez, Pablo Milanes, etc. Jose Alfredo Jimenez is a must for any Mexican. I also love Betsy Pecanins, even when she sings blues, my, what a voice! Eugenia Leon is pretty good. And, if in the mindset for a Peruvian diva, I love to listen to Tania Libertad. <img src="smile.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle>
Kirath, wow, you are YOUNG! How cool you teach younger people about older music. I think everyone must have a chance to listen to music from different time periods. It's an excellent way of learning how cultures and ideologies change through time.

I like both kinds:
Country and Western!
I actually like all kinds of music - from C&W (Sawyer Brown here), Roots Music (Old Time, Bluegrass and Ragtime), Blues, Swing and Rock and Roll. I still love the Beatles and the Grateful Dead, but I like Metallica too. I like Irish too, but I might live without Wagner - a little too heavy to my taste.
I play guitar, banjo and piano. Usually I play Old Time, Irish and Swing.
