As it should be, since it was originated in the US by the "Scotch-Irish"
who moved from Ulster to Appalachia. I college a fraternity brother was
into bluegrass, and would tune into WWVA evenings.  I like old-fashioned
"country and western" music, which you don't get much of any more. What
they call "country" now is too similar to pop.

Yes, Bach is still good, in a cold sort of way.

I always liked classical, although I got into Bach later. I like just about
anything except the tuneless, non-musical stuff that seems to be popular
these days.
