I listen to everything from swing.. to rockabilly.. to heavy metal. Pretty much the only thing I DON'T like is pop music (new or old)

And my all time favorite singer is Mike Patton.. he's extremely diverse, and looks like a clean cut version of Johnny Depp to boot! ;)

In the car, I've got Sonny Rogers and the Kingpins and Wildfire Willie and the Ramblers, both amazingly authentic-sounding Rockabilly groups from Sweden who record in studios that contain original 50's ribbon microphones and equipment.

At home I've been playing a lot of 1930's Bing Crosby lately, and my latest Billie Holiday box set - I actually found a set of three CD's that have a whole heap of her recordings that I didn't already have! And in the study/family room there's a great doo-wop compilation on the stereo entitled "Cost to Coast Doo-Wop and Jive."

Steve Earle, to be followed (probably) by the Young Dubliners and then the Mavericks.

"shuffle songs" is the best iPod feature... :)
