[speaker001:] okay um what type of music do you like
[speaker002:] well pretty much uh the thing I'm into mostly is new age uh like Yanni um oh uh Peter Barden uh
[speaker001:] uh-huh
[speaker002:] gosh there's just so many of them I can't even can't even name them all Enya I just got a catalog just now as a matter of fact uh actually my husband got it uh Lady Slipper Catalog and it's it has music from a lot of women and it's got uh Enya in it and Carol Nessin have you ever heard of her
[speaker001:] no I have not what what is the the message what is the underlying theme of new if heard of new age music but I don't I wouldn't know how to identify it
[speaker002:] well actually most of the music that I listen to there's no theme it's instrumental
[speaker001:] oh really
[speaker002:] um and I tend to like instrumental better because there isn't that underlying theme there's no message to be get gotten there um it's just enjoying the melody
[speaker001:] what
[speaker002:] that's what I like about music
[speaker001:] okay what separates that from something such as jazz music or you know
[speaker002:] well um I guess you could tend to categorize some of the stuff like I like in into jazz uh Jean Luc Ponty is he's kinds of a he's he's jazz but he's kind of more of a contemporary type jazz he's got the um the electric violin
[speaker001:] uh-huh
[speaker002:] um um my husband just said before I switched to this other phone he said so you like the Dixie Dregs and that's is another one of my favorite groups but it's they're kind of in a group by themselves really
[speaker001:] so
[speaker002:] they're more they're more like progressive
[speaker001:] okay they're progressive in that it's just the same up beat tempo type or instruments they use
[speaker002:] um no progressive music is more like they have real complex um uh rhythms and key uh key changes
[speaker001:] uh-huh
[speaker002:] um it's it's a more complex it's it's not your your typical top forty type that has um it'll it'll be in a particular key or whatever and it it doesn't change
[speaker001:] uh-huh
[speaker002:] um progressive has a lot of different um I don't know it's it's a lot more complex
[speaker001:] okay what does this type of music have to do like when I go to the book store and I see new age books does this have anything to do with that
[speaker002:] no no that's really a lot of groups don't like to be called new age because it's kind of a a label that it it kind of kind of connotates the out of body experience like the
[speaker001:] uh-huh
[speaker002:] um Shirley MacLaine type thing and that's not it at all
[speaker001:] yeah okay
[speaker002:] it's it's just a different type of music and I guess um I guess you would really call it contemporary jazz
[speaker001:] okay that's that's good and is this becoming more widely available
[speaker002:] I think so um do you ever listen to one oh six
[speaker001:] no
[speaker002:] um um they play some of the stuff that I like although they've gotten them they've gotten to a lot more into the saxophone stuff and I don't really care a whole lot for saxophone like um Kenny G
[speaker001:] yeah
[speaker002:] he's okay but um I like more of a variety and it seems like they are playing all of this saxophone type music that enough is enough you can only handle so much of it
[speaker001:] yeah so so you could label Kenny G as a new age
[speaker002:] well yeah he's kind of a new age
[speaker001:] okay I was wondering
[speaker002:] kind of a jazz new age
[speaker001:] all right
[speaker002:] it kind of kind of depends on how you look at it
[speaker001:] okay I I've listened to one of his disks probably about a month ago and and
[speaker002:] uh-huh what did you think of it
[speaker001:] I thought it was talented I thought you know he's a you know has definitely a lot of talent and I I wouldn't buy it for myself but I was glad to listen to it you know I'd
[speaker002:] uh-huh yeah I saw him in concert several years ago and he is puts on a really good show
[speaker001:] seems like he does
[speaker002:] he really is incredibly talented
[speaker001:] yeah well that's cool
[speaker002:] what what what kind of music do you like to listen to mostly
[speaker001:] um I'm very um open I listen to a little bit of anything I've got I listened to rock and roll a lot when I was growing up so a lot of the groups that have been well established for a long time such as you know like Tom Petty or you know the Eagles
[speaker002:] uh-huh yeah
[speaker001:] I know most of their stuff and I continue to purchase their latest releases as long as you know they don't sell out and still stick within their you know their certain style
[speaker002:] yeah I I like top Tom Petty until he got to be kind of top fortyish
[speaker001:] yeah
[speaker002:] like his first two albums were really good they're real real you know nitty gritty down to the I mean real roots of rock and roll and I really liked that
[speaker001:] yeah
[speaker002:] when he got to doing his um um didn't he do a he did an album with who was it Stevie Nicks I think
[speaker001:] yeah yeah they sang a couple of tracks on one of her albums
[speaker002:] and that was okay but I liked his early stuff a lot better
[speaker001:] yeah I was really I'm really impressed with his latest the what was the name of the latest album I have it it's um I like it you know it's you've got some top forty hits and I'm sure you know he's geared to that but there are some songs that are pretty cool on that and you know with the videos and stuff now coming out
[speaker002:] yeah
[speaker001:] he may be softening up little bit but you know I still like his voice and you know he's not you know it's not that bad um I also like Christian music a lot
[speaker002:] uh-huh
[speaker001:] I like um I like um I like orchestra I like symphonies classical music
[speaker002:] uh-huh
[speaker001:] because
[speaker002:] I like some classical except that I have a really hard time going to buy it because some of it is just really awful and some of it is really good and I don't know the good from the bad
[speaker001:] right you don't know until you listen to it
[speaker002:] so
[speaker001:] excuse me yeah unless you have someone that can loan it to you or you go to the library and listen to it
[speaker002:] yeah
[speaker001:] it's kind of hard just to
[speaker002:] yeah the one one classical piece that I really do like is Vivaldi's Four Seasons
[speaker001:] yeah
[speaker002:] I really like that and I like I like some Beethoven
[speaker001:] yeah
[speaker002:] um and that's really all that I've really sampled that I why I should say I I have listened to some others that I like that I can't remember their names offhand my husband makes all these tapes of all different artists and I never know what I'm listening to I just know that I like it
[speaker001:] so so if you walk into your home then you stick something in you're you're not sure what what would you stick in if you come home and just could you turn on a station or stick in an album or disc
[speaker002:] I'd I'd probably put a CD on and I would I would probably probably most likely go to something new age I would probably Carol Nessin or um or Yanni or somebody like that um once in a while I'll put on some classical um  sometimes my husband has a whole variety of music so I really have pretty much anything to choose from
[speaker001:] uh-huh well
[speaker002:] um I do like a lot of the older stuff too but we don't really have a lot of the older stuff on CD um and that's pretty much all I listen to
[speaker001:] did you
[speaker002:] I I hardly ever listen to the radio anymore
[speaker001:] did you say one oh six
[speaker002:] yeah
[speaker001:] has the new age station now are where do you live
[speaker002:] yeah I live in Carrolton
[speaker001:] okay we live I live in Sherman so I'm not sure if I'll I can receive that station or not but I will try and I'll you know listen for a while
[speaker002:] oh okay okay
