Wow Phil,

That spacy music is called "spacy music".  I used to like it when I 
was astral projecting and the like, but, when I was born again, I 
gave it up because it brought back those images and feelings.  I used 
to project to a lot of Kitaro's CDs.  They don't bother the Reeves, 
so I promised them to her.  I also listened to Echos on a station out 
here called WYMS.  I think that program on NPR was called "Echos From 
Space"  That was just a bit too ambient for me.

Techno? Are you serious? I never could imagine you listening to 
tecno.  Dag-nag, I forgot to arrow through it to find out how you 
spelled it.  Anyone got a free Braille display? 
heeheeheeheeheeheheheheeheeheehaahihohuhahehihohuhyhehehehe.

I loved the beatles but in later years I went for Judy Collins, CSN 
and CSNY, The Buffalo Springfield, Joani Mitchell, Doc Watson, Merle 
Travis, and, of course, my own composing.  I love classical, but, I 
never liked Chicago.  Iron Butterfly on the other hand had a good 
album, only one as far as I know.  Pink Floyd bored me to tears, 
either stoned or straight and so did the Greatful Dead, although, 
Jerry Garcia played a mean peddle Steel Guitar when he had the notion.

By the time I got to College, it was all Latin-American, Spanish, 
Brazilian and Portuguese "Fado" for me.  Much later, I added Japanese 
again from my younger days, and Italian.  Of course, living in Spain 
and doing a little more than sampling the Hash caused some rather 
radical changes.  I picked up on Arabic music big time, as well as 
something called "Andaluze" (phonetics mine), which is strictly 
played in Fez.  It was modified form of the music played during the 
Muslim conquest and flowering in Spain's Southern region during the 
Medieval times.  What beautiful stuff when you were so, 
justststststst so stststststststststststoned!

Good grief, I think I'd better stop before I put the list to 
sleep.  Now it's CCM all the way and most of that exotic stuff has 
left my house, although I did find some Kitaro in the living room.  Yuckers!

Luv in Daddy Jesus,

Mari
