My Zune just shuffled in Terrapin Station Medley by the Dead and I went "WOW! What a song."
>I've listened to quite a bit of the Dead and Garcia - granted, much of music tastes are subjective, but I've never found their music skillful or impressive or interesting. To be honest, it bores me. Same with the Beatles.

>Sometimes music can be impressive but still uninspiring - for instance, Beethoven was certainly skillful - but Franz Liszt had it all, and created some of the most adventurous music of all time.
>
>I never criticize someone for their music tastes (except if someone likes Bon Jovi, haha) - but I often find that music tastes (and art tastes in general) reflect one's sense of life.
