The Good Stuff



There are simply two kinds of music, good music and the other kind ... the only yardstick by which the result should be judged is simply that of how it sounds. If it sounds good it's successful; if it doesn't it has failed. --  Duke Ellington

This purpose of this thread is to provide a place to post outstanding examples of the Good Music.

My CD has a different cover art, but it is the same album.

There are simply two kinds of music - one that a particular person likes and one that that particular person does not like. I like a lot of rock and pop, and I could list hundreds of examples of GREAT music, but that list would be too long. I don't like jazz, country, blues and a few other genres, but I make no value judgements about any of it. Just because an artist is great doesn't mean their music is something I enjoy.... 
Larsman:

I think you miss the point.  List outstanding performances of the music you like, or even music you don't like.  The emphasis being on the phrase 'outstanding performances'.

'Rock' is normally not my thing, but, the post of  Rory Gallagher was wonderful.  I loved that.  Turn down the volume, and I could be a Rock fan.    Most of the music in any genre is average.  So, post the exceptional stuff that you think will appeal to many.

BTW, this is not an Audiophile thread.  So, no need to be confrontational.

And to think I considered myself a trumpet player, at least until I heard this.  Great clip.
