At the core of my love of music rests certain bands from the sixties...particularly the Rolling Stones (best band EVER, IMHO)..the Kinks...the Moody Blues

Bowie hits some of the right buttons in my heart...and as for recent bands give me the likes of Kasabian and Ladytron

More randomly i have come to love the "gypsy jazz" of Grapelli and Reinhardt - check out an album called Hot Club de France

I am also (quite frankly) overwhelmed, by a lot of classical music... Vaughan Williams (who is so evocatively English) , Elgar, Beethoven and others, I think I am only starting to truly appreciate the works of artists such as this....it really seems truly immense
