I'd echo that. I listen to a great deal more music now I'm in my 30's
and have a much wider taste but I'm still looking primarily for the
right whooshy noise. (Only on BOC-l could I say that without a trace of
irony.) When I was 24, I was in a band full-time and therefore was
listening to little outside of our own band, and the bands we gigged
with, (Ozrics, Culture Shock etc.) , as you do.

The amount of times I've asked a musician what they're listening to at
the moment, only to get a blank look and an "Ah........."
