Nick Hornby wrote that he doesn't like bands - he likes songs. I think it's the right view, and it works for types of music as well. Although I have preferences in types, it doesn't discount me from liking particular songs from that type. For example, I'm not especially keen on heavy metal - but my nephews have introduced me to one or two tracks that I can't help but bang my head to : o )

Blues, Blues, Blues, and ... more Blues

SRV (Stevie Ray Vaughan) is my all out favorite, but I will listen to any blues. Got to see BB King in concert a few months ago and that was *amazing*. Not only are his guitar licks emotional, but so is his speaking.

And I have to second Under The Bridge by RHCP. That's definitely one of the best songs ever. Good combination of lyrics, musicality, and talent.

holmes are you a fan of Wynton Marsallis-Blood on the Fields or All Rise?

I'm all over the map, musically, but lately I have been listening to "Down from the Mountain," music from the concert of musicians from the movie "O Brother Where Art Thou." (Could be something to do with hubby leaving it in the cd player in the Jeep?)

Never heard of them Rock. What style are they?

Moon, the music in "O Brother Where Art Thou" is great! Nothing wrong with liking it ;-)

Moonshh: "O Brother, Where Art Thou?" is one of my favourite films and the music from it is just brilliant! A modern classic : o )

My player's churning out Debussy's La Mer right now.

Ok, so French Impressionism tends to sedate my brain giving me the tendency to accuse the wrong suspect, but what the hell... :D

Wynton Marsalis is the son of Ellis Marsalus0the great New Orlean's swing pianist. Wyntnon Marsalis is the director of the Jazz at Lincoln Square (NYC) and travels a lot with his septet (same as the 7 disk set-Live at the Village Vangaurd) He's probably the most well know swing trumpeter or his era-known as the young lions.
Blood on the Field is a jazz ortorio that won the Pulitzer Prize around 2000. It tells the story of 2 african people that were made slaves in the south-and how they excaped that slavery both pysically and spiritually. Personally, I think it may be one of the most important recording of the last 30 years.
For Blues, (he mainly is a old school swing person) I'd check out his The Midnight Blues Standard Time Vol. 5.

nice Lew Sibal!
*puts on Ravel's Daphnes and Chloe, but is wary also of a FA getting on his record.*
