Biggest genre jump in your iTunes...

If you sort by artist, who are alphabetically next to each other, but represent totally different styles/vibes, etc.

I would have to say mine would be Ratt to Ravi Shankar

alphabatizing by first name lends itself to some funny ones.

i don't have iTunes here at work, but I'm pretty sure mine is gonna be Slam Stewart to Slayer.

Robert "Squeeze my Lemon till the juice runs down my leg" Plant to Alison "Baby, now that I've found you" Krauss. Oh wait, they're on the same line.

Still wierds me out that those two ever performed together.

I organize my list by artist - it does make for some odd combos.

AC/DC - Money Talks
next selection
Academy of St Martins-in-the-fields - Brandenburg Concerto No.3 in G

Later on my playlist

Izzy Stradlin followed by JJ Cale

Jimi Hendrix followed by Jimmy Buffett

Pablo Cruise followed by Paul Butterfield Blues Band

Public Enemy followed by Pure Prairie League

I've got a few.
Mission of Burma -> Mississippi John Hurt
Naked Raygun -> Neil Diamond
Sex Pistols -> Sharon Isbin -> Silos
Stan Getz -> Steel Pulse
Just a small sample. My ipod is pretty ecclectic.

EDIT: Norah Jones to Notorious B.I.G. is the biggest gap...both by genre and in the looks department...

When you have a ton of music and your only real interests are country, rock and roll, and hip hop, you have a ton of these.

Bruce Springsteen to Bubba Sparxxx to Buddy Holly
Killer Mike to King of the Hill theme
Jay-Z to Jayhawks
Leo Kottke to Lil Wayne to Little Richard
Old 97's to Outkast to Patti Smith
Tom Waits to UGK

You get the point. "Shuffle" is useless for me.
