Docbop Posted July 23, 2020 Share Posted July 23, 2020 I don't know about that list seems off. First a lot of categories and looking at the numbers like to see how they defined the categories. Like what are they calling Classic Rock because, being old what is called classic rock is a moving target. Then HipHop started in the late 70's and they don't have it showing on the chart at all till the end of the 90's. Somethings it's like they are listing sub-categories as separate categories. Jazz they had it dying in late 50's but in early 60's they were Jazz records on the in the early 60's. I'm don't think much of there data.

ElmerJFudd Posted July 23, 2020 Share Posted July 23, 2020 Jazz had a good run of it. Quote Yamaha CP88, Casio PX-560 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChiefDanG Posted July 23, 2020 Share Posted July 23, 2020 Fun. Too many categories though. I wish they generalized more. Have to admit, I had to look up 'Chanson'. Quote Professional musician = great source of poverty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Music Bird Posted July 24, 2020 Share Posted July 24, 2020 Wait in 1916 there was country music? That"s surprising, I thought the first recorded country artist was in 1923. Maybe they meant old time?

Docbop Posted July 24, 2020 Share Posted July 24, 2020 County music's roots are from the British settlers who came over and could only bring a little stuff so for music it was banjos, violins, guitars but they were still playing the popular music from Britain. Country's roots are British pop. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KuruPrionz Posted July 24, 2020 Share Posted July 24, 2020 County music's roots are from the British settlers who came over and could only bring a little stuff so for music it was banjos, violins, guitars but they were still playing the popular music from Britain. Country's roots are British pop. British music had roots back then, Irish music for one. The banjo is an African instrument. Bill Evans does a show called "The Banjo In America", I saw it up here at Nancy's Farm. A great history lesson. He starts after a lovely piece, around 5:40. His thesis is that the banjo is the conduit between European music and African music because anybody could make a banjo. I have a kit copy of a Boucher banjo - pre Civil War. I can't play anything like Bill!!!! Quote It took a chunk of my life to get here and I am still not sure where "here" is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

El Lobo Posted July 24, 2020 Share Posted July 24, 2020 This helps explain why I don't care for most popular music starting in the 80's and ever since. And yeah, Blues is never in the list? What's up with that? Quote These are only my opinions, not supported by any actual knowledge, experience, or expertise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KuruPrionz Posted July 24, 2020 Share Posted July 24, 2020 EDM is not on there, I suspect a complete polling would at least show it as a popular style (ugh).
