Further on this, when I find something I like and recommend somebody else listen to it, rarely do they do it. Not sure why, perhaps people "know" what they like and already have enough to listen to. It's usually "oh yeah, yeah, I got busy" and I never hear further. Someone coming back to say they hated it would be more useful feedback, though not what I had hoped. I have picked up on some fantastic music from others which might not have been found otherwise, or much later by chance.There's not much in the way of music I would feel "embarassed" to admit that I like. It's not a problem with much of it being earlier electronic; and instrumental so-called "new-age", as the artists are usually not recognized by people I mention it to, for example David Arkenstone, Patrick O'Hearn, Peter Maunu, etc.
No trouble "admitting" to liking Carpenters' music at least some of their tunes, and just picked up one of their CDs, which is a throwback to earlier/simpler times. I still like simplicity of CDs and now that people appear to be getting rid of theirs, thrift shops here are full of them at typically $1-$2 each, which used to cost ten times that, and I find most are in great condition.

I like some of Glen Campbell's songs. There I said it. Out loud and everything
Who? lol I know what you mean. I have so many songs by so many artists when someone says "who is that?" I often say "I have no idea, hang on, let me look at the playlist".There's not much in the way of music I would feel "embarassed" to admit that I like.

I don't know if he wrote any of his songs. "Gentle on My Mind" was written by John Hartford. Hartford's version is good also.I like Glen's "Wichita Lineman" song although he didn't compose it.
