OVER MY MANY YEARS AND TRAVELS I'M ACQUIRED A WIDE TASTE IN MY LOVE OF MUSIC. THE ABOVE ARE SOME OF MY FAVORITES.  WAS RAISED IN SOUTH LOUISANA AND HENCE BY LOVE OF CAJUN, ZYDECO AND NEW ORLEANS' OWN PROFESSOR LONGHAIR.  RECALL SITTING ON MY GRANDFATHER'S LAP AND LISTENING TO MISSISSIPPI'S JIMMY ROGER aka THE SINGING BRAKEMAN.  AND FROM MY YEARS OF LIVING SOUTH OF BORDER AND THE LONG NIGHTS SPENT IN THE "ZONA ROJO" (RED LIGHT DISTRICT) I ACQUIRED A TASTE FOR MEXICAN REGIONAL.  AND THEN, OF COURSE, THE CLASSICAL I LEARNED TO LOVE AS A RESULT OF TAKING A MUSIC APPRECIATION COURSE AT THE UNIVERSITY OF SOUTHERN MISSISSIPPI---AN ELECTIVE I NEVER REGRETTED.
