This is a partial sampling of the stuff I listen to. It runs the gamut from funk, jazz, fusion, rock, blue...you name it, it's good stuff.

 

that's the SHORT list????

 

That's the thing. Anything I could post would be about as bad. If not longer. Addison Groove Project is great stuff, Morphine is a band I take to my soul I'd like to add to Bastardo's list. Ben Folds Five; John Lee Hooker, B.B. King are two blues artists that transcend their genre. Gnappy, Antijazz, and if you haven't checked out Bela Fleck after loving him with DMB live, you just aren't even trying.

And that's the thing. We can post long lists, and the adventuresome will find tons of stuff to listen to. But everybody's gotta get on their own bikes and find out what the land's like for themselves. Music found on your own accord can never be replaced.



As for "moment", I'm nto saying go through 7000 posts. I'm saying pay attention, grab a song as it comes through if it sounds intriguing. Or grab a certain page or two - 174, randomly - and pick out a song or two. The possibilities are endless but you gotta do it yourself.
