[QUOTE="JerrylHaterzgon'hate, post: 2265116, member: 791195"] Depends entirely on what they've listened to in the past. If they were classical fans, I'd play them five prog rock albums. If they listened to Jazz and Blues I'd play them Steely Dan and Derek Trucks. If they listened to pop I'd play them some Indie Rock. The thing about introducing somebody to any genre, especially rock which probably has more subgenres and variety within the genre than any other one, is that if it's too different from what they already know, they probably won't like it. You can't just play them the classic albums by all the godbands and expect a jazz fan to just automatically love Led Zeppelin. Give them what sounds closest to what they like and slowly expand until they're open-minded enough for other things that don't sound like the genres they first listened to. [/QUOTE]
