Waddaya mean no else likes Hiroshima? I like 'em! "Course, Im a HUGE modern jazz fan, although my tastes also run to well-recorded classical, with a touch of Gospel thrown in. Guess it helps to both be married to a classically trained, eighth generation pianist/organist and to be an old trombone player and quartet singer too! You'd LOVE to go to my old stompin' grounds of Davenport, Iowa, USA and go to the Biz Beiderbecke Jazz festival over the Fourth of July weekend!

The King King variations from Frank Zappa's Uncle Meat. Well, in my mind. Really, the window's open and I hear cars slishing by on wet pavement.
 
Dee Dee Bridgewater, Ella Fitzgerald. for Jazz
I'm also some kind of fan of Kate Bush.
Steeleye Span and Clanad are great.
And I also like Cocteau Twins.

On Latin Circuit I like
Fulano (a local Jazz band)
Pedro Aznar

MAF: Angry middle age, Jan? Surpressed rocker, maybe?

Frank my music is very wide.

Beethoven, Kate Bush, Van Morrison, Sex Pistols, Talking Heads, Charles Aznavour, Frank Sinatra, Miles Davis, Sonny Terry/Brownie McGee, John Lee Hooker, Edith Piaf, Hendrix, Stones, Brubeck, Beefheart, Ten Years After, Stranglers, Beatles (late), Dead Boyz, Dead Kennedys, Cyndi Lauper, Loretta Lynn, Tammy Wynette etc etc I'm short on opera but like Pavrotti so there you go.

If you figure out what my taste signifies ('no taste' is not a fair comment) let me know ;-) Jan
 
I also listen to Hiroshima and Brubeck is good too. One I haven't seen listed yet is Keith Jarrett... his totally improvised concert albums are amazing.

Take Five, my intro to Brubeck. He almost lost me with his Brandenburg Gate album. It was almost a year from the time I first played it to the second time. Then the third, fourth, and the next thing you know, I really got to like that album. I think his only real bomb was his Japan album. It was just too predictable.

Also surprised nobody likes Hiroshima. Not many people can really sing jazz, to my tastes at least. They can. So could the original Ohio Players.
