All Steely Dan is amazing...vinyl and otherwise including the solo stuff from Becker and Fagan. I recommend John Scofield, especially the stuff with Medeski et al, for kick butt jazz (Metheny usually uses a too "apologetic" tone for my tastes), and Little Feat for sophisticated boogie...Feat is what the English guys (like Page, Stones,etc.) were nuts about in the 70's.
help with music?
Hello,
I'm excited by new electonincs (thank you Roger), but music isn't really about equipment.
I'd love to expand my music collection. I feel confident in my music selections for classical, vocalists and country/bluegrass. Unfortunately I don't appreciate hip-hop
I'd love to get some ideas for jazz and rock.
In jazz I like Brubeck and Miles Davis but have been lost by some of the more complex forms of jazz.
My rock is almost all old collections (like Led Z. #1 and Aqualung). A helpful granchild brought over some heavy metal but I couldn't appreciate it. Another one brought over "Dark Side of the Moon" and I loved it.
So with that in mind, could anyone tell me what I might buy in the rock/jazz music? The wonderful new stereo equipment begs me for some new music.
Thanks
