Nice thread, eta! We haven't done one of these in a couple of years...
Well. Bach, Mozart and Beethoven aside (being horses of a different concourse): I like bluegrass/Celtic (will have to look up Alex's Nightingale ), boomer oldies (especially Motown), Dylan and L Cohen and Joni Mitchell and all them folky types, folk (roots?) music from just about any country -- from down n dirty samba to the glorious male voices of Georgian choirs, Russian liturgical chant, classical Middle Eastern/Sfardic and South Indian music... it'd probably be quicker to say what I don't like: heavy metal, "mainstream" country, rap/hip-hop and whatever the kids are listening to nowadays [/curmudgeon].
I've recently discovered Heinrich Biber, a Baroque composer with a sense of humor (must have been the PDQ Bach of his time) and am listening to him as well as anything NPR happens to be playing. Also listening to Mediæval, Renaissance and Baroque Christmas music as befits the season.
