Oh and I forgot: I like a bit of classical too. Still a newbie, so mostly just Schoenberg.

The only categories on this short list that I tend to stay away from would be AOR and country. What do you feel about music that would be classified as singer-songwriter or folk?
Yeah, everyone here hates Bon Jovi. I had one ally a while back but he's disappeared (perhaps under mysterious and worrying circumstances....)

As far as classical, well you can't go wrong with the greats: Mozart, Beethoven, Brahms, Dvorak, Liszt and so on. I'm really fond of Rachmaninoff and of course then there's Holst's epic The Planets Suite, which if you haven't heard, you have heard some of without knowing it. Like this:

Folk is not generally my thing, though you can't diss Woody Guthrie. I'm fond of this guy too, god rest his soul
