Of course, there's lots more but this is a good start.
I pretty much like most styles from world music, pop, classical (mainly Sacred, Early Music, Baroque, The Impressionists), Rhythm n' Blues, gospel, jazz, and the various types of traditional music.
Mostly documentaries. California's Gold, Visiting, and Road Trip w/Huell Howser. They mainly deal with traveling within our own State of California. Mr. Howser seems to have a knack finding these great little out-of-the way places, and bringing the best out of everyone he interviews. Some places I've visited and some others I plan for in the future. I've been watching his shows for many years and I've had the pleasure of speaking with him on the phone a couple of years ago. I want to one day meet him face to face just simply to tell him that whether he realizes it or not he truly is....California's Gold.
