   Never heard of him.

   Ditto.

   I didn't know this. OK.

   I know that they were popular, but didn't know they are STILL popular.   
   Not my cup of tea. :)

   It is obvious that F1 want to adjust to American market.   
      
   Since I am almost 60, my music preferences are different (more jazz,   
   rock and blues). But, obviously I'm not in the main target group.   
      
   At least there is no hip-hop, rap and similar on the list. :)
