Praeserpium Machinarum:
Loreena McKennitt's album Book of Secrets is really good, I just wish my mother's cd didn't have scratching, the first track is basically unlistenable.
Also it has the Highwayman! which is an awesome poem as a song, I especially love the part where she goes "tlot tlot!" :)
TrueNeutral:
I am currently listening to Loreena McKennit's 'The Mummers' Dance' which my friend sent me over MSN.
I need to get more of this.

My dad while i was growing up was into fairly easy listening stuff. Lately he's gotten into his classic rock/prog rock stuff. He's started collecting every piece of Pink Floyd artwork there is. He also likes to mix in random modern stuff, like the time coming back from an A's game he had the Kaiser Chiefs on.
My mum, when she actually listens to music (rare) likes easy listening and Tony Bennet.
all that said, I have no idea how the music my parents listen to influenced my musical taste. I don't like prog rock and deplore that classic rock radio crap. My stepdad on the other hand is big Beatles fan, so maybe there lies the answer.
AAAAUUUGGGHHHH!!!!
a pack of wolves:
My Mum likes John Zorn, Tom Waits, Rabih Abou-Khalil and David Thomas. The woman has taste.

--- Quote from: Trollstormur ---I'm pretty sure my dad's musical tastes beats all yours for wierdness. recent shit he's been listening to is Dungen, Acid Mother's Temple, Sleepytime Gorilla Museum and a few others I can't recall.

I like how this thread can evolve into "my father's dick is bigger than your father's"
My dad certainly doesn't like Acid Mothers Temple, but he is quite in love with bands like Spectrum, Experimental Audio Reasearch, Autechre and many other experimental electronic music.
One of the most bizarre moments was browsing the S section at my hluse (he orders his CDs alphabetically) looking for The Smiths and finding Spacemen 3's "Taking Drugs To Make Music To Take Drugs to"
