Anything Robin Trower

R

radfrad, I agree totally!! I love Robin Trower especially the albums with Jack Bruce. Also, Anything by Little Charlie and the Nightcats (Alligator Records) awesome rock the house Blues! Eric Clapton's "Unplugged", "From the Cradle". There are way to many to list...like Johnny Hodges & Wild Bill Davis "Blue Rabbit"

 Im stopping only because I dont want to sit here and type 100 more at least. 


Matt M                  P.S. JJ Cale's-Five is another one that comes to mind.

As marty has already said, "Many, many"...

Speaking categorically for myself, anything by Steely Dan.

Reaching back a little:  Electric Ladyland; Fragile; Close to the Edge; YesSongs; "Zuma".

Some albums from two bands I'd like to see get more "love":
"Wire Post to Wire"; "Swimmer"; "Albatross" - The Standard.
"The Stars Are Indifferent to Astronomy"; "You Know Who You Are" -  Nada Surf.

"Music for the Divine"; "The Way It Is" - Glenn Hughes.

Playing now:  "Transitive Verses" - Brookhaven
