Musical preferences

[Matt Seil]

I'd say that's overly reductionist.

What's the time in my life that reinforces "I'm gonna hit random on 
Spotify/Pandora/Whatever" and then for example, figuring out "Whoa, i 
never heard this Dolly Parton song before, it's really good!"

What's weird here is that /I don't even like country!/ Well, not 
normally.  That Dolly song (Jolene) is like nothing I'd normally listen 
to.  30 years by that point of *hating* country and never hearing that 
song and then like, "Whoa, that's really good..."

That's also how I found out about several Jazz musicians... Jazz in 
general is something I didn't get into until I was like, "You know what, 
I never did listen to Miles Davis."

I've heard  nothing at all like Bitches Brew before or since, and Sun 
Ra, well, good luck finding comparisons there.  John Zorn maybe?
