For a while there I was big into the 90's....the 1890's!! ! Check out the wonderful rolling cadence of ragtime music, the precursor the jazz and whatnot. There's a bunch of MP3s of old 78 rpm recordings on archive.org, or use the internets to serach for Scott Joplin.

Of course, I am listening to grinding industrial DETHMUSIK right now ironically.

I love ragtime, boogiewoogie, traditional NewOrleans, smallband swing, some bigband too... any jazz that is based on danceable rhythms. I’m not a fan of crooners. Put a muzzle on Sinatra. He can still play the triangle :)

Yeah, I don't listen to a lot of big band but it's really fun, so upbeat and confident. Benny Goodman and Louis Prima were great too. I just love any syncopated music, it kind of relaxes my mind to listen to it.

I love 1930s/40s Big Band music. Nothing wrong with your tastes at all.

I'm stuck in the past too. Robert Johnson, Blind Boy Fuller, Lead Belly, if it's blues, count me in!
