Most of the 60s music really, since from being little in the 90s all I heard from my Parents, Grandparents and 'much' older brothers was 50s and 60s records/cds.

So I ended up really loving the 60s as a time for music and collecting cds from that era myself too.
Two acts that really made a massive impression on me would be 'The Moody Blues' and the singer who became and is still now my all time favourite singer of anything, 'Petula Clark' who also was my Grandmother's absolute favourite star too.
'Downtown' becoming almost my own personal anthem as I love that song so much.

The Beatles - Both parents.
Brown Sugar and Under My Thumb by The Rolling Stones - Father.

From my Mother...

Michael Jackson.
Rod Stewart.
Shania Twain.
Madonna.

Meat Loaf and Cher - Dead Ringer For Live... which led to me liking more of Meat Loaf's material.

None really, I have no idea what kind of music my dad likes and my mom was into the Supremes and that sort of thing, not really my style.

I guess she introduced me to The Carpenters and I like them.

[Niamh.]

I do love the Doors which are my moms era but she doesn't like them

Mum was a massive Beatles fan and also loved John Lennon. :flutter:

My Dad has always been a big fan of Reggae, so i pretty much grew up having to listen to that.

But i get the majority of my music taste from my brother more than anyone.

[LemonJam]

Pretty much the only band me and my dad both agree are fantastic are Thin Lizzy. My mum (and sister) always get their music from me. :laugh:
