A bit snarky, yes, but based on my reading of her posts over the years.Kal

I hate individuals who have a history!
I don't get it Kal. Teresa, in her very descriptive writing style traced her own history of music genres preferences. The fact is, her taste in music listening has changed and is quite explicit when describing the factors that led to her own evolution. I don't see this as necessarily a good or bad thing but rather her own personal journey into music listening.
The factors that lead ones choice in music are many and not always based strictly on the music
genre or artistry of the musicians. For me, my music preferences are often based on the subjective feelings, associations and memories the music conjures up. For example, I never get tired of listening to music, both pop, jazz and rock, of the 50's and early 60s which I refer to as "The music of life."
I am happy for her self-realization.

Hey Kal, a couple of posters may have missed your point, but I didn't. You made an observation based your experience, and stated your thoughts in a succinct, straightforward, and non-antagnonistical way.
I might add that, in these days where many "under 40's" have grown up in a world where everything has to be stated in politically correct terms, it's refreshing to read something that gets to the point without endless disclaimers. I didn't read anything into your post other than you observed that the person didn't really seem to be "into" classical music. Fair enough.
I have no clue who "Teresa" is, and doubt that I've ever read anything she's written. In any case, it's sad that she had to sell her SACDs to pay the rent and other bills. She must have had a LOT of SACDs and other stuff to sell! She might want to consider a different line of work.
Wait - she made 24/96 copies of them first. Now I don't feel so bad for her. :)
Funny is that I played Violin in high school and I prefer folk and bluegrass and contemorized show tunes to traditional classical.
Jazz I like but I don't go out of my way to persue more of it, I prefer Katy perry to Diana Krall. She has a more pleasent response curve.
That's the problem with writing on the Web. Sometimes it is hard to correctly translate a message
when you cannot hear the inflection with which it is written.
I find Teresa's writing skills and strong (passionate) convictions quite compelling as she doesn't dance around issues and is quite up front with her views and opinions.

oh did...Journey comment struck a nerve or Fox News? Probably both. In that case you probably don't know what 'bad day' is like.

"oh did...Journey comment struck a nerve or Fox News?"
No, neither struck a nerve. It's just that all you have had to offer to this thread has been completely dickish posts. I was just giving you the benefit of the doubt that maybe you were having a bad day and that you weren't really just a complete dick all the time. Sorry to hear it's a chronic condition and not just a bad day.
Who the f**k are you? Can I HELP you?

Sounds like an exchange between Zimmerman and Martin...
"Who the f**k are you?"
Just another forum member. Do you lack the skill set to check my profile?
"Can I HELP you?"
Very unlikely. I think all you can do at this point is amuse me. We all have guilty pleasures.
You want to be amused...? I can't help you with your problem.

"You want to be amused...?"
Don't we all from time to time?
"I can't help you with your problem."
I thought we had already agreed that you are of no value in the "help" department.
There must be something wrong with the grown man who's profession is 'Make-up artist' or collects toy trains (or whatever)...It's bad enough when one is involved with HIFI (also guilty)...You must be a total Alpha Geek.
You are right - me and you are total opposites. ;) Cheers!

Really? Did you think kids were on set doing makeup for movies and TV? Your attempt at an insult here goes beyond lame to just plain bizarre.
> > or collects toy trains (or whatever)...It's bad enough when one is involved with HIFI (also guilty)> >
It's bad enough? And you actually had this odd moment of self awareness here. "(also guilty)" Guilty?
> > ...You must be a total Alpha Geek. > >
You must be one totally miserable fuck to think there is something wrong with being a professional artist in the film and TV industry or having hobbies. No wonder you are a total dick.
I'm just feeling sorry for you now.
"No wonder you are a total dick..."No, I am a genius - except nobody knows it but me.
I apologize for an 'attack' on your profession, and rest - what in fact wasn't an attack...but hey I am a jerk (some of the times). You sound like a decent guy, so my sincere apologies if I was hurtful in any way. Regards!

I'm talking Drifters, Buddy Holly, et. al. Buddy is my all time favorite. In fact, there is a part of me that still mourns his passing.
I go back to the Doo Wop era and in some ways I'm probably still stuck there but offer no apologies.
