What Do I listen To?
I am a huge fan of anything from the 1950's to the 1980's. I also listen to Orchestral type music and Film Scores. The First CD I ever put on my iPod was titled "Simply the Best Movie Themes". At that time, I would listen to only one song on that CD: Mission Impossible Theme. From there, I picked up CD's from the library that had songs I have heard of before. After listening to 95.9 The River and then later 104.3 K-Hits, I expanded my list of songs from mainly just the 70's and 80's. Most of the film scores on my iPod are of movies I haven't seen. I picked them up mainly because I have heard of the movie and found out the music is great! As of recent, I have been purchasing more CD's, mainly so I can listen to stuff in the car.
