FANTAZZMO- 1: ENTER THE FANTAZZ: Genre, what genre?

FANTAZZMO 1:  ENTER THE FANTAZZ

Genre, what Genre?

Who cares about genres? 
Why are there so many of them? 
Who sits around and comes up with shit? 
Do people that only listen one genre eat only one type of food?
Do they only have sex in one position?
Do they only listen to that genre for the rest of their lives?

I think not!

I'll agree there is some need for genres.  Music stores, ways for people to categorize what they listen to and why they dress as they do, etc.  But it seems to be taken to the extreme.

Classical, Jazz, Rock, Pop, Rap/Hip Hop. Blues, R&B, Gospel.

Most music can be put into these categories, if you want to get crazy ad a metal genre, world music, and maybe different languages.

Led Zeppelin played blues, blues rock, american folk, traditional, classical, middle eastern, pop, prog rock, elements of jazz, tropical, calypso, and many other styles of world music, all while under the name of Led Zeppelin.  Did people freak out?  No, they LOVED it!

The Beatles covered pop, rock, r&b, doo wop, elements of jazz, classical, middle eastern and many other types of world music and guess what.....they're still considered one of the greatest bands and greatest song writers of all time!

The Rolling Stones covered, pop, rock, blues, soul, r&b, delta blues, elements of jazz, classical, disco and other world music and they are and were one of the greatest bands of all time!
Jimi Hendrix covered, many blues stylings, rock, pop, soul, r&b, waltz and pushed the sonic envelope further than anyone could, and he is one of the greatest musicians who ever lived.

Do you see a pattern here?  The greatest, most successful songwriters and musicians incorporate many different styles of genres into their music & so will I!

My heros did what they wanted, played what they wanted, and said what they wanted & Fantazzmo will do exactly the same.  So don't take genres so seriously, you may only like one song on the album, or you maybe willing to enjoy the ride.  I can only guarantee one thing, if you like any of the artists I like, if you share any of the same heros I do, then you will like AT LEAST ONE SONG ON THIS ALBUM.   I guarantee it!
