What else do you listen to besides saxophonists/jazz?

What else do you listen to besides saxophonists, or jazz music for that matter?

For me (in jazz), anyone from Miles to Louis Armstrong (trumpet), Art Tatum to McCoy Tyner (piano), Kenny Burrell to Jim Hall (guitar), JJ Johnson to Steve Turre (trombone), and vocalists such as Billie Holiday, John Hendricks, all the way up to singers like Diana Krall.

Aside from jazz, I listen to classical, blues, funk, alternative rock, early R&B (i.e. Ray Charles), classic rock, Cuban, early African (acoustic), early Japanese (acoustic), and more recently, ancient Egyptian (spiritual).

Primarily jazz and classical with various rock/alternative artists thrown in, but I'd like to think I'm pretty open to new stuff.

I'm a fan of rock, gospel music, and sometimes some hip hop. Mostly Jazz though.

Beats

You've gotta feel the beat flowing through you, and then through your horn. It's the most incredible feeling in the world.

Besides instrumentals I listen to Rock and Roll, Rock, some of the very earliest recordings of hip hop, some of the very earliest recordings of rap, and Grunge.

Jazz, New Age, Lounge, R&B, Soul, Bossa Nova...yeah, those.Smile
Valley Sax

I listen to almost anything, but must say I like the golden oldies, Blues, Rhythum & Blues, soul and rock & roll of the 60's and 70's. Some country music today isn't too bad. If you listen real carefully todays country is basically a rehash of rock and rhythum and blues of the 50's that I grew up with. Being trained along classical lines I still listen to a lot of that, especially sax stuff like Vincent Abatto and others of that period.

Listen to anything besides Jazz!!!!!!!!! What????
JazZz

I get made fun of for my music taste in school, I am the only 15 year old I know who listens to such a wide variety of stuff I listen to a lot of jazz, like 50% of my collection is jazz which is like 150 cd's. But the rest of it is rock, lounge, indie, funk, reggae, classical, electronic. My band teacher has gotten to the point he goes up to me every day and talks music history in jazz and rock and stuff.
