I like Yanni & Enya & Mannheim Steamroller.. guess most "real" musicians would chase me away with a stick. But I will never claim to be a music expert.. just know what I resonate with/to.

Ah, let them! My personal opinion is that post-Pyotr Ilyich (and some of his stuff sounded like he had gotten a bit too deep into the crack too), things in Nashville got a bit bizarre.

I like Mannheim Steamroller and Enya, but I won't put them in the same category as Yanni. Based on the quality of the music that springs from his imagination, I put him right up there with Mozart. An example for those who haven't heard his work (and keep in mind, that this MIDI approximation is a poor mirror indeed of the real thing).

Yanni's Santorini is superb. Top Shelf.
