I...If you're not into punk, I'd avoid Blur. It's more Britpop, but they definitely have some punk influences.<br />Also, if you want to laugh, check out Bowling for Soup's "A Hangover You Don't Deserve". I guarantee you will be smiling after listening to that. Great, great band.Wileyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08054312958599233396noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8883281516588008936.post-58578874806733307242011-02-09T08:42:39.286-05:002011-02-09T08:42:39.286-05:00Bragger- I'm totally going to get all three Bi...Bragger- I'm totally going to get all three Billy J albums, though I think I have Streetlife Serenade. <br /><br />Hubby is hilarious... not! <br /><br />And I don't mind the long comment; I appreciate the recommendations.<br /><br />And I'll get Atlanta Rhythm Section, too!<br /><br />Melissa- I see your point but I usually get so "turned off" by the stuff I don't like that I tune it out. <br /><br />And I listened to a lot of country in my past and for right now, that's something I'm done with. I lived in the Wild West and the only music that wasn't country was what I bought or downloaded. I think I'm ready for something less... twangy.<br /><br />Paul- Oh I ADORE Miles Davis!<br /><br />Wiley- I don't know Feeder, so I'll get that CD. And I don't know Blur either- would you recommend them as well?<br /><br />booknut- okay, I'll add them to the list. I love a girl group sound!<br /><br />Thanks all for the suggestions!Maggiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01283944377017377125noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8883281516588008936.post-36690745532178335442011-02-08T22:25:32.635-05:002011-02-08T22:25:32.635-05:00There's this girl group called Danity Kane.

They're a lot Britpop, a little alternative.

You never know, you might hit on something you absolutely love. Okay, I'm a country music lover so I of course have to take issue with the fact that you don't like it and I must find a way to change your mind! I'm totally kidding, by the way. I hated country until about 10 years ago and somehow I got hooked on one song, then another, and now here I am. I'd be happy to give you some suggestions. There's a lot of country music that isn't all twangy. =]Melissahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02479330426178808826noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8883281516588008936.post-15484398147089999382011-02-08T08:27:14.195-05:002011-02-08T08:27:14.195-05:00Wow....what a challenge. I was going to suggest on...Wow....what a challenge. I was going to suggest one of Billy Joel's early ones, like Cold Spring Harbor or Streetlife Serenade. Or you could try HIS classical album, Fantasies and Delusions.<br /><br />Random comment: When I got that CD in the mail, Hubby and I were leaving to go somewhere. I excitedly tore open the package and queried aloud, "Wonder why he called it Fantasies and Delusions?" Hubby responded, "Probably because you THINK you're going to play that in the car." He's a scream.<br /><br />Oh crap. Just realized you said a band you've never listened to before, not just an album. How about.... Atlanta Rhythm Section from the 70's? Either "Third Annual Pipe Dream" or "Dog Days" or "Underdog". <br /><br />Sorry so long!Braggerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01252719085678735035noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8883281516588008936.post-91433817095083660572011-02-08T08:01:13.648-05:002011-02-08T08:01:13.648-05:00Via email, I got a recommendation to listen to the...Via email, I got a recommendation to listen to the Cherry Poppin' Daddies, which I was told was like Brian Setzer.Maggiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01283944377017377125noreply@blogger.com
