Classic R&B- Bobby Womack, Bill Withers, Marvin......
Bob Dylan
Delbert McClinton
Classic Blues

What they call R&B now is just raunch and smut to my ears, just like Pop, Rap, HipHop. No class in music anymore. It's all about sex or anger

I've always liked listening to oldies and classic rock.

I like Classic Rock (e.g. Foreigner, Fleetwood Mac, Pat Benatar, et al), Classic R&B (e.g. "The Motown Sound", et al), Country / Classic Country, Pop (I like Katy Perry, Lady GaGa, Amy Winehouse, Adele), Classic Pop (Boy George, Michael Bolton, Barry Manilow, et al), and Elvis, singing Gospel, just makes the whole world, okay!! I like some other Gospel, too.
