Well, let's see.
As far as genres go, I love: Rock, Metal, Indie, Classical, Contempoarary, Acoustic, Jazz, Big Band, Swing, Funk, JazzFunk (lol), Fusion, Bebop, Hard Bop, Country, Alternative, and a whole other assortment of things. I pretty much like most genres of music; anything that I can get a feel for I'll probably like it. :-D
IF you have not heard the bands in the Boldfaced font, then I strongly suggest you check them out... they are all excellent. Those in CAPS... you don't have to listen to them, but they're good too.

Coltrane
You scored 242 Jazz points!
Your defenatly a fan, and you've probibly have a good collection of
cds. So I award you with John Coltrane a catylast, and influenchial
jazz saxaphone player. Not only a sideman of Miles davis but a
innovator of free jazz. He composed the A love supreme which is his
praise to god, but you know all this already. "Damn the rules, it's the
feeling that counts" - John Coltrane
