| I'm confused - one can't fit into his genre and one can't play his genre. exactly what is a genre? if you rub an old lamp does one jump out?
there's still one jazzer in the closet. |

| just offering a helping supporting hand as you take that first faltering step and admit to liking jazz. I'm here for you when your friends and family turn against you. we have to stick together.
true story - about 3 weeks ago I was stood at the bar between sets and got talking to a guy. "It's nice that so many people still like jazz" I said (it was a good crowd). "Can't stand it" he said, "but the beer 's cheap on Mondays". |

Gregorian Chant? Hawaiian Ballad? Synth Pop? Big Band? Yodeling? Purple Dinosaur?

Since it had to be just 1, I chose the "Other" category.
But I have to admit that currently I have been listening to "The Complete Robert Johnson Gold Collection" almost exclusively for many weeks now.

Steve I contemplated this before posting the poll. I fiqured P&W (including Acoustic Christian) was really covered by the other genres. I would classify AC as folk. I'm not trying to pigeon hole anything, but if I were to listen to Inspirational Bluegrass, I would classify it as Bluegrass... |

Location: N W Ohio | I got to ask. What kind of reaction do the rest of you get in a Bluegrass jam situation when you show up with an Ovation. I took one of mine to the jam that I visit when I can, and they looked at me like I'm from another planet. When I show up with one of my Martins I'm welcomed like it's old home week. My Ovations hold thier own in most situations. Well maybe not Bluegrass. Tim, I to am a Bluegrass nut. Mostly a folkie but play Bluegrass whenever I can. |

Location: East Tennessee | Many Martin & Taylor Players tend to look down their noses at Ovations, but they draw their opinions having played one or two lower priced Ovations in their local music stores. The ones that have been there awhile and need new strings.
I have played one or two $3,000 to $6,000 Martins that I really didn't like the sound of, and have picked up a $400 Washburn or $500 Ovation Celebrity and thought they sounded as good or better.
Beauty is in the eye or ear of the beholder.
OK now I'll get off the soap box and let someone else have a turn.
Oh by the way I voted Other since I play mostly Gospel music which may have a Country/Folk/Pop/Bluegrass/Soft Rock Style . |

He went nuts over the GS, thinks life is unfair since he doesn't have an uncle with O's. Now he wants to come over to play the "plastic" O's. We'll see if he still wants to get a Taylor (Walnut) W10 - doubt if he'd ever be able to afford it. |

Location: Las Cruces, NM | I had to check Country cause at my age when I play "Orange Blossom Special" at full speed, it kinda sounds like "Good Night Irene". Hank Snow played a big flat top and so did Mac Wiseman, but Hank Williams and Ernest Tubb snuck in some electrics, then came Merle Haggard and Buck Owens with wide open Teles and folk and bluegrass faded.
Why wasn't Cajun included?? I might have voted for that, is "Blue Bayou" cajun? |
