Dad: Tangerine Dream
Dad - Einstürzende Neubauten
Father: Merle Haggard, Joan Baez, Dolly Parton
Dad- Quo, Helen Ready, Beatles, Mamas and Papas
Dad - loved anything and everything that was "Good music" as he used to say, I still have his record collection that fills this small room I am in now, I could never part with them, luckily my wife feels the same, a few times a year we have a record party with friends, we get out all the records and play them, he would have loved that .
My mum likes depressing singer songwriter stuff like Bob Dylan, Gillian Welsh, Alison Kraus. She also loves Eric Clapton and JoBo bizarrely.
Mum used to like Frank Sinatra, Johnny Mathis, Ella Fitzgerald, and musicals from the 50's and 60's, e.g. My Fair Lady, Camelot, West Side Story, and so on. Nowadays, she leaves Smooth FM on all day...
Mum liked Irish & country music, Ilike some of the country stuff, but am not really into Irish music. I wouldn't go out and buy a cd of it, put it that way.

Mum liked anything Irish. Brendan Shine, and Brose Welsh and his Sunshine Band were the main two played. If you don't know who they are then you are lucky.
Mum liked swing and big band, and that has probably seeped through to my musical tastes, but has always been into popular stuff. I can remember the first album that stuck in my mind as being ABBA's Arrival (the album cover of the group sitting in a helicopter rather than the music itself) but I think she must have bought it a year or two after it was released or my memory goes back to when I was two or three.

Mum:- No real favourites, but did say she preferred the Rolling Stones over The Beatles back in the day. Mainly listens to the local oldies radio station (Radio Tay AM) as she has done since it started years ago.
Pink Floyd, Van Halen, ACDC, Led Zeppelin......
He suffered from a huge bout of depression in his late 40's and gave up on music completely then he died at 53 quite suddenly but when he did love it, he loved the guitar based stuff and gave me some amazing influences.
My Mum NOW is a big country music fan among other things and likes some pretty cool artists including Ray La Montagne but back then she would sing "La-De-Dah" along with every song that existed and clap on 1 and 3.
It was fucking embarassing.
I'm very proud of how she's matured over the years and she's learned to clap in time properly now as well.
It was pure destiny they got together
My Dad did have quite a few faves from "Popular Music" throughout the decades though
