>Actually I am. My music collection is 70-80% 80s music and therefore there's "some" new wave in there. I prefer that to some of the insipid stuff we have nowadays on the radio (over there may be rap but down here is reggaeton). I remember the disco era fondly, perhaps because I was just a kid back then so the damage it made to my music taste wasn't so bad.

>>I'm certainly not a new wave fan, but I can't recall any sort of music that I thought was as bland, boring, and predictably monotonous as disco. I dislike rap intensly, but even rap has at least some originality from time to time, and whatever else it may be, it's hard to call it 'boring'.

Most of my music collection is some form of jazz. I agree that there is a lot of very insipid music around these days. I grew up through the 60s, and while there was good music back then, there was also much bad music. People look back on it now with rose coloured glasses and think it was all wonderful. It wasn't. Interestingly enough, some of my favourite music is from well before my time. I love music from the 20s and 30s - especially the jazz from back then.
