This trick doesn’t always work. What you look like is not always a predictor of your tastes.
I was at a record convention once, more years ago than I care to count. At that time I had a beard, and a nice full head of hair in the ‘dry look’ style. One of the dealers was boasting to a friend that he could tell just by appearance what kind of music any customer liked and was hunting for. I was flipping casually through LPs, not watching them, when I heard him call “Hey! Kenny Loggins!” I waited a few beats, and then finally looked up. I answered quite honestly that I had no interest in Kenny Loggins, and was not trying to find any of his records. He had no answer, and his friend was still there to see that his system didn’t work so well. I moved on, and no Kenny Loggins sale was made.
