Re: What music group(s) do you listen to?
Aspie types don't spend a lot of time listening, but we pay close attention when we do.
Not Groups so much...

Seamus Ennis
Battlefield Band
Planxty
Inu
Boys of the Lough
All Blacked Up
The Bursledon Village Band
Michael Ormiston & Candida Valentino
Stackridge
Kate Fletcher & Corwen Broch
Abbie Lathe
John Martyn
Geckoes
Kirsty MacColl
Woody Guthrie
Bonzos

Re: What music group(s) do you listen to?
Too many to list in too many categories is my short answer.
Put it this way, my MP3 player has over 760 albums by over 360 artists on it, covering everything from Rock, Prog, Country, Folk, Blues, World and Classical. Jazz and hip-hop/rap are about the only things I can't listen to.
Current rock stuff I'm listening to includes Mumford & Sons, I Am Kloot and Elbow
At the folky end of stuff I'm listening to Flook, Spiers and Boden, Kris Drever, Lau, Kathryn Tickell and Lunasa quite a lot at the moment.

Re: What music group(s) do you listen to?
Just now: on a journey of discovering Hungarian Csángó dance music, with wooden whistle/ low kaval-whistle as a lead instrument:
Zurgó együttes - Hojna: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=41xka2xzCS8
Tűz Lángja zenekar: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tAFqE7eBVqg
Csürrentő együttes: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uoP7SRSeaXY
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NSY4oTQpzI8
Hojna reminds me of old time music. Zurgó was filmed in a Budapest dance house.
Tűz Lángja was filmed at the Budapest Christmas market.
I love the last Csürrentő clip, filmed in the open, with the kids joining in.
együttes and zenekar just mean band or group

Maria McKee
Heather Nova (Jasmine Flower is beautiful!)

Re: What music group(s) do you listen to?
It depends on where I am, who I am with, and what I am doing, but I absolutely can't stand Edith Rice Pilaf, or More Rice Chevalier or atonal contemporary, or whispery, consumption suffering, ethereal female vocalists, and/or Celtic Woman and Enya or their evil clones.
Re: What music group(s) do you listen to?
Random sampling of my Amazon Cloud Drive:
Eddie From Ohio
Emilie Autumn
Old Blind Dogs
Scissor Sisters
Old Crow Medicine Show
Karen Elson
Garfunkel and Oates
Crooked Still
Squirrel Nut Zippers
Steve Miller Band

Re: What music group(s) do you listen to?
I didn't start listening very seriously to Irish and Scottish trad until about six years ago. Since then, I've been circling back and picking up on all of the great stuff I missed:
All the geezer flute & whistle players (particularly Mike Rafferty)
All the young lion flute & whistle players (particularly Kevin Crawford)
All the great pipers (particularly Seamus Ennis)
Chieftains
Battlefield Band
Altan
Solas
Planxty
Bothy Band
Patrick Street
Moving Hearts
.....and so on...

Re: What music group(s) do you listen to?
I saw them live in Toronto and they were stellar with their acoustic set. Their early stuff with REM influences, Jane Scarpantoni on cell and Chris Macguire (ever heard of her?) on vocals were the most devastating acoustic albums I'd ever come across.mutepointe wrote:I wonder what happened with the later years of the Indigo Girls?
They went downhill after Rites of Passage for me. Swamp Ophelia with its grandiose gestures was showing signs of rock stardom and loss of artistic direction. Thereafter, they just being old and tired and bored, like Jimmy Hoffa jokes. Lol. That's an Aimee Mann cover song. Modern fans of theirs will argue that they offer the peak of what desperate middle-aged housewives can churn up in the kitchen for music.
