Wow thats a pretty wide taste, I like classical & death metal but I also like world and jazz, maybe some world type new age depending on the mood though primarily instrumental stuff.

Well I typed that list hastily and forgot to mention GONG and Hillage, and more recently I became a big fan of Kendrick Lamar, To Pimp A Butterfly is a magnificent album that gives me goose pimples. I've been in a fairly diverse bunch of bands, alt metal, rock, chamber pop, sitar fusion, and still in a South African afrobeat/kwaito band. I never got into jazz, I have tried, but some of the new jazz-influenced stuff that has been emerging over the past 10 years is more my thing. Knower are incredible, I love that kind of stuff.
Mind you, flamenco has always been in my consciousness from an early age, and since starting lessons with Ramon Ruiz in January I've only really been listening to flamenco.

Helloween, Racer-X, Judas Priest, Iron Maiden, Avantasia. BWV 1016, Glenn Gould 24 book 2, Segovia, John Williams, Miles Davis, Mahavishnu/Shakti, The Guitar Trio, World Sinfonia, Yngwie, Van Halen, Jason Becker.
For flamenco, I only listen to old cante these days, though there is tons of stuff….and the top solo guitarists Ramon, Sabicas, Paco, Manolo, Gerardo. Antonio Rey sometimes.
Internet and the phase out of CD has changed things for me big time. I no longer check out new music like I used to….new CD’s in the car. It started when I purchased my car and they laughed at me when I asked for one with CD player. I had to make play lists on my phone….this apple sharing sh1t has ruined my old play lists and whatnot so I use YouTube mostly to listen to albums or make my own play lists there. I have one album of Racer X in a drop box someone sent me, it is ridiculous. YouTube lets me listen to music and use GPS at the same time at least. AT home I am collecting vinyl like a mad man. I used to hate vinyl, now it seems like the only real music in existence. Tauromagia is on heavy rotation along with Ramon’s solo album, Sabicas with Carmen Amaya, Escudero with a Hauser, etc. I will use the DVD player and surround sound on rare occasion to play CD’s. Strange times.
I just saw Al Dimeola last night, and his big selling thing is vinyl. The funniest thing is he hand writes out charts of his famous tunes and sells them with his signature in the top, as if he is Picasso.

@Stu, I listen to a TON of music, sometimes 8 hours a day depending on what im doing for work which is mostly a desk Job. I guess i feel I've run out of new flamenco artists to listen to, though i've been searching up some of the newer or well known artists. Lately I've been obsessed with Luciano Ghosn, I found out he has some tutorials on patreon that I will subscribe to eventually, or maybe even a few lessons. For some reason his playing to may ears very closely resembles Vicente Amigo.
@Ricardo, im also into Vinyl and higher end stereo equipment though this summer has left zero time for it, I even built a listening room a few years ago that I use every night for a bit. Im actually interested to look up some flamenco on vinyl, im sure it exists. The nice thing about vinyl is you can find stuff that you can't find on Spotify or CD's.
@Pgh_flamenco
I can understand that, there is alot of talent tied up in introverts who just want to play focus on their instruments and not have to deal with the dynamics of a band or an orchestra
@silddx
One thing that got me into Jazz was Coltrane and Miles Davis, though its definitely an acquired taste and it takes time. Though the same thing can be said for flamenco I would say as I dont know anyone else that likes it, especially as much as I do.
