I've never been one for genres, they just get in the way of things, but I can definitely get along with Purple, Floyd, Crimson, Cooper etc. I was never a fan of Ted, not because I didn't like him (or knew what he'd become) more because he just wasn't on my radar. I know plenty of people cite him as a genuine influence but I'm too late to that party and his idiotic ways of the last few decades over shadow anything I could like about the guy.
Hendrix is another I never got into. Talent, sure. Great songs, maybe a few, but overall he just did nothing for me.
