Dissecting the taste of a musical eclecticist, as dictated by both recreation and obligation (for class). Perhaps the final stage of Buddhist enlightenment as interpreted from a musical standpoint: when the line between recreation and obligation disappears.

Prokofieff - Piano Concerto No. 2 (Obligation, though it began once upon a time as recreation)
Super Sax - Lover Man (Obligation, Music 503a, homework)
Charlie Parker - Thrivin' on a Riff (Obligation, dictation exam, that's fucking hard)
Eminem - Kids (Obviously recreation, though I suggest if you haven't already, you convert this into obligation)
William Bolcolm - Graceful Ghost Rag (Obligation, lesson on Monday)
Milstein playing Bach - Violin Sonata No. 3 (Recreation, albeit a respectul type of recreation, and only for Wayne's sake)
DJ Revolution - In 12s We Trust (Recreation, chillin' music)
Simon and Garfunkel - The Sound of Silence (Recreation, ever since Stan reinspired me)
The Beatles - Baby You Can Drive My Car (Recreation, good 'ol rock n' roll)

Anybody got any Trip Hop for me? I'm fiending some. Particularly some Portishead, Tricky, or Massive Attack.
