onewheelwizzard:
If my dad listened to Dungen and Acid Mothers Temple I'd be bragging about it to my kids.

Houdinimachine:
My parents made me listen to a lot of oldies as a kid, but mostly Motown. To this day, I think that's why I just can't STAND Diana Ross.

But, I did get a healthy love for the Beatles, CCR, and Jefferson Airplane out of them though. Plus, I love a lot of the Turtles singles and pretty much any bubblegum pop from that era.

Hm, something occured to me when I re-read my own post.

Why does every period only have songs that sounds exactly the same as the other songs in that period? I mean, why didn't they shake it up? Release different things? I don't want to get an hour of the same synth pop song over and over again but just done by different people.

Bastardous Bassist:

I don't know.  My dad loved his Christmas present, which included Steve Reich's New York Counterpoint for Clarinet, Bass Clarinet and Tape, as well as  Howard Sandroff's Tephillah, for clarinet and electronics.  And then I was all proud when you bring back a CD with a bunch of Varese, only find out he already has a bunch on vinyl.  My dad is so easy to buy presents for.  I just think about what concert music I'd like to get, and buy that.  One of these days I might get him something too experimental for him.  I will definitely record that year, because it will be a momentous one.

KharBevNor:
I'd suggest some Cornelius Cardew (just because the old coves related to me) but he was mainly a performer: very little of his stuff is actually recorded, at least that I can find. Mainly because it was always stuff like 9 scores representing different schools of composition being played at once over two nights, or pieces for prepared piano and transistor radio. I think his most famous piece is probably Treatise, the very nature of which means it can never sound the same twice.
