I know you like Brian Setzer but there has to be some new stuff that grabs your attention; no?
When you say Dexter Gordon of course thats like comparing Frank Loyd Wright and I.M. Pei. Sonny/Dexter/Webster/Coltrane/Hodges, that list is pretty long, each in his own way.

Martin Taylor; all those British Guitar Wizards; John Martyn/John Renbourn/Richard Thompson/Martin Sexton, I like all of them.

I am a closet fan of English Folk-Rock.
Pentangle, Steeleye Span. I like the women that sing that stuff like Maddy Prior and Sandy Denny.

My point in rattling off all these names is there is a pretty rich repository of music that really does not get discussed at all.
Your thoughts on music are appreciated and we had a really good discussion going in the High Efficiency Forum with Brines and Dave. But there are no posts dealing with current picks available that might help expose others to stuff you know and vice-versa.
You have to wonder at the point of discussing how to play the sound without talking about the music.

The TV I watch outside of games and news is mostly the shows on pay channells simply because I cannot abide commercials. Constant battle in my home since I will not watch shows that have them.
