I like classics; jazz from dixieland to good bop; blues; swing, Gypsy,  Willie Nelson; Folk; and anything I am asked to play or sit in on - including six weeks fronting gospel show.
 
"Our kind of music" implies to me an inate snobbishness and musical bigotry..   If we gotta be politically correct when we play we mmight as well give up and perform for audinces of eight regularly.  Tyler Jackson, a marvelous jazz man, plays bass for Ray Price and drives the band.  We'll become like the political extremes and try to out play "their kinds of music: and drive them off.
 
Wait - that might be kind of fun.

It was my bad chord, Bob & list.  I even know better in a stronger  moment 
and I apologize!  So I will say no more and hope for ultimate  harmony again 
soon.
