If you are a music lover but not a musician I'd like to point you in the direction of areas of music that you may not currently
listen to. or be aware of --Classifications really don't help very much and is really only for marketing purposes.I belive
it was Miles Davis who said "
There are only 2 kinds of music good music
( meaning musicplayed very well ) and bad music ( meaning music played badly ) ". Everything else is up to the listener.
If the listener likes it then it's GOOD and if the listener doesn't like it the music is bad.
MUSIC YOU OWE IT TO YOURSELF TO LISTEN TO---the starting point---
Anything by---- Mozart or Bach , Miles Davis, JohnColtrane , Louis Armstrong, John Hartman, Andy Bey, Renee Fleming, Cecilia
Bartoli , Keith Jarrett , Quincy Jones ,Nitwin Sawhney , Al Jarreau ,George Jones ,
the Beatles, Little Richard , Muddy Waters , Luciano Pavarotti, Nusrat Fateh Ali Kan, Bryn Terfel, Ice Cube , Snoop Doggy
Dog, Philip Glass,
Keb Mo' ,
Success is a journey not a destination

Here's a picture of my very good friend & business partner Andrew Gordon with our piano/keyboard God Herbie
Hancock, at the NAMM show. What an inspiration he's been over the years. What fantastic music he's written and produced.
I've heard him live a few times and his playing is totally unbelievable.
