I’ll finally get around to speaking on my music tastes…
1) Favorite Band of All Time: The Beatles. For most of the same reasons as Dave… their body of work, their constant evolution throughout their careers, the pure beauty of their music. Hands down, no question about it.
2) Favorite Band/Singer of Right Now: I have a real soft spot for Barenaked Ladies and Train… I have loved them for several years now and I always eagerly anticipate their new stuff. I have been on an emerging artist kick lately… mostly spurred by the genre of music made popular by Fox’s The O.C. Its hard to pick a favorite out of the group since most of them only appear in a track or two and I haven’t explored too many past that level of exposure. Maroon 5 is the exception to this rule.
3) My Favorite Album/CD of All Time: Toss up between two Beatles albums… Rubber Soul and Abbey Road. I believe these two albums represent the pinnacle of The Beatles’ artistic career.
Honorable Mentions… Paul McCartney for everything thus far, specifically Flaming Pie… Queen… Andrew Lloyd Weber for his latest treatment of Phantom… Blues Traveler’s Four… Counting Crow’s August and Everything After and Recovering the Satellites.

Dude… you have such good taste – in buddies and music. Every Beatles album does something different and wonderful for me. You made two excellent choices.
As for the Bucknaked Sams, er Barenaked Ladies, they are pretty tremendous. I am proud to say I found them on my own – and they were fully dressed in an excellent collection of pithy and smart lyrics.
Woot!
We share the same favorite all-time band and album (mine being Abbey Road).
Here’s a toughy…what’s yer favorite Beatles song? (mine’s Blackbird!)
They’re all good, but I have a general three way tie that has not yet been broken between: Blackbird, Let It Be, and In My Life. I also tend to like Rocky Raccoon and Carry That Weight pretty well.
I’m sure you know that Blackbird is the only song I can play on my acoustic guitar, right?
BAH! I had no idea! Its like the only Beatles song that I can’t play (the chords to) lol. Damn your skill!
