    I wouldn't actually call the Red Hot Chilli Pepers old music. Sure, they've made hits since the beginning of the 90's, but that is pretty recently. And they still make music nowadays.

    I agree with you, my dear fellow Dutchman.
    And I have to say there are lots and loads of other popgroups/bands mentioned in this forum.
    What is old? When is music old?

    Man, does this thread ever make me feel old. I need to hang out with Jack Funk and Belisarius more. :1eye:

    I thought you were going to be talking about classical music.

    Lately I've been discovering "roots" music -- American bluegrass and gospel a la "Oh Brother Where Art Thou?" Now that's old school.

    Of course, as we speak I have "Ice Ice Baby" playing on la computadora. Yeesh.

    I hear you man. When people start referring to Smashing Pumpkins and Nirvana as old, then I am getting old.
    How is that "Oh Brother, Where Art Thou?" soundtrack? Would you recommend it?

    I really loved the soundtrack until I drilled it so thoroughly into my head that I can recite it. I overplayed it and got kind of burnt out.

    But then I like hick music in general.

    Old Music? From the eighties. God, now I feel...old. I like a lot of older rock, like from the sixties and seventies, always have. Early Aerosmith stuff, CCR, Steppenwolfe. Stuff like that. And truly, I certainly hope Smashing Pumpkins is not yet considered old. Please.

    When you say roots, do you mean THE Roots? As in, the dudes with massive afro's?

    I have one of their albums. It's pretty damn good.

    I also love listening to Acid Jazz/Retro Acid Jazz/"Chase Music". It's just pure genious.

    Hey, heheh, you're my man!
    I also like old tv-tunes. Starsky and Hutch.
    I love the sexy trumpets, the hammonds and bassguitars.

    Totally. That and the theme from Bullit - Steve McQueen was a genious.

    I bought i Smooth Acid Jazz compilation the other week. It's totally amazing. I'm not too keen on some of the acid jazz with lyrics. I prefer pure musical jazz.

    Wheeeh!
    I love that! Jazz without song.
    Just bought about 5 CD's: The Blue Breakbeats series and a CD of Donald Byrd, which happens to have the same title, Blue Breakbeats (up-tempo Jazz from the 70's). I heared some nice ol' groovy and funky tunes of Jimmy McGriff and Gene Harris.
