Hee! No. 'Longhair music' is a term a lot of older folks used to use to refer to the music that all the kids were listening to. It did start out back in the hippie days, but now it's more a term to describe something that's artistic and usually somewhat obscure.
Geez. Stuff I like...you won't have heard of most of it, maybe I ought to mail you a mix CD one of these days. Lately I've been listening to a lot of Red Monroe, TV on the Radio, and Birds and Batteries. Went to an in-store concert this past weekend by Charlie Louvin (also playing Bonnaroo) who was a pioneer of Americana music - real country music, as opposed to the soulless crap you hear on the radio these days. Ever hear any Johnny Cash? It's that kind of thing.
I'm trying to think up stuff I like that you'd know. You like a lot of classic rock, right? I'm a big early Rolling Stones fan. And I know every note of every song the Beatles ever wrote, just about.
Hub and I are big Kinks fans, as well. Next to The Police, that's probably the group I'd most like to see re-form. Since Iggy and the Stooges already did, and I really need to get out to see them this summer sometime.
