Music you love but don't listen to much?
 
We all have our preferred styles of music that get a lot of time on the stereo, but what are those types of music you rarely find the time for, yet love to hear when you finally make the time?

I imagine everyone who's at least a semi-regular in here has eclectic tastes, so there's gotta be something that either tends to be forgotten, or that you're just not in the mood for very often.

I can think of few examples myself:

Esperanza Spalding and other selected jazz related things. Not really my genre most of the time, but there's a few jazz songs that feel good when the mood is right.

Nile and other super aggressive metral. Not a big fan, but sometimes, sheer brutality seems like the thing to listen to. Not actually when I'm angry at all. I like Nile the most if I'm feeling joyous!

Not really a classical music fan, but there's a couple such albums that found their way onto my record shelf. This one Barbra Streisand record has an amazing sort of romantic, old-french-movie vibe to it that I love. The soundtrack for the 1992 Dracula movie is also very good (by some guy named Wojciech Kilar).

I don't generally like African American music. Not hip-hop, not R&B, not soul, not funk, not 99.9% of all jazz. There's nothing racist about it - it's just that I'm white to the core. Crackers will crack, I guess. Somehow, Erykah Badu is totally great when I get it - but most days I don't feel like listening to her albums at all. Strange.

A lot of jazz, I guess.

Anything. Since I can't listen to everything in one sitting.

I love captain beefheart, but apart from safe as milk, which is a cool album for driving, I hardly listen to him.

A while ago I would have said Swans, but I listen to them a lot now

But you still love his other albums?

I certainly do, but I'm seldom in the mood to listen to them.
