Oh just to provide a bit of background for this category, one song turned me on immensely, a few were interesting, and prolly about half were fair to middling to not my cup o tea! haahah
I want to do a bit of a write-up for each, so while I open a fresh sodi, watch football, pick my ass and suffer writer’s block, the pace should be nice and glacial.

Wondering if I go to sleep at 11 whether there’ll be no updates when I wake up.

Should be a strong start with Riv trashing everyone’s favorite bands, lol

ok. with 1 point pyatnitski!
I like jazz, but it has got to dare to do something outside of the customary. Those guys are trippers and voyagers, this is safe and bland. This 12-minute-long song basically meanders over the same terrain, without any summit. No real flirtation with any satisfying ingredient. It’s like Traffic’s ‘The Low Spark of High‐Heeled Boys’ sans any move forward in a purposeful way.
lol go to bed, amigo. We’ll talk jazz, you and I, some other time. 
Favorite bands/artists was super hard. For one thing, it was super tempting to lie. Secondly, I feel like I kind of stopped having real favorites a long time ago. Or at least I stopped feeling secure in talking about music that way? I dunno, it seems like something that made more sense when I was younger.
ETA, omg the reveal is happening! I’ll shut up!
And one last ETA before I actually do shut up: in the end I think I was pretty honest even if it prevented me from considering a lot of music from “current favorites”.

I dunno, I always expect to lose these now but calling Keith Jarrett safe and customary is just silly. Am off to bed though as these sorts of discussions are pointless.

I don’t really like jazz much, which I guess is kind of weird since my dad is actually an accomplished jazz musician (played bass on a gramy-winning album!), but I am never anything other than confident that he (my Dad) has better taste and knows a shit-ton more than I do about music and FWIW he LOVES Keith Jarrett!

you need to hold my hand, and explain it to me, I guess lol
do not like to rustle feathers, and I’m honestly trying to understand what distinguishes this from that etc.

I tend to do have favorites but those change all the time. I could name several bands that were definitely my favorite at some point in time. Top 4 is hard though and I don’t think I could accurately rank my current favorites accurately.
