Dark Side of the Moon is one of the best albums of all time as is Bridge over Troubled Water.

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmm-  Norah Jones.  She just came out with an album with the Willies.

Ricki Lee Jones - Love her

Chet Baker - Trumpet and great jazz standards

Steve Earle - Country Rock

Lyle Lovett - He does everything.

 

That was tough.  I have like 1000 cds.  Music is one thing I don't skimp on.  It totally changes my mood and is there when I need it. 

2.  U2 The Joshua Tree

3.  Gordon Lightfoot

4.  Enya

5.  Maire Brennan  (Enya's sister)

James Taylor,  and Phil Collins.... anything...

Oh yeah..James Taylor and Phil Collins are great!

I love Queen, Jimmy Buffet and  Gretchen Wilson too.

And Kenny Chesny and Toby Keith.

It is hard to pick just 5. If we ever have an RA get together, we will be set for music!

Pink Floyd fans....have any of you gone the the Pink Floyd Lasar Spectacular show? They travel to the major cities and do shows once a year?? My uncle is the producer, he started it back about 20 years ago and they still sell out the Houston show every year.

crunchy38818.8832407407I saw it, Crunchy - it must have been nearly 20 years ago - a while ago. I loved it. I would go again. Dark Side of the Moon never gets old for me. There's a new Gilmour CD, which I don't have yet, but have to get.

I'm a music freak (have iPod, will travel). There are a lot of great suggestions here. Some I know and love. Some I don't & will have to check out. I didn't know about Enya's sister. I saw James Taylor at the Civic Arena in Pittsburgh - they opened the roof. What a fantastic concert. Saw Simon & Garfunkel when they toured a year & a half ago - it was unbelievable. Music is what gets me through the days.

This has turned into an awesome, upbeat thread.  I love music talk.

I am still comtemplating buying an iPod.  Everyone I know just loves them. 

 

Fleetwood Mac

Wings

ABBA

Stevie Nicks

ChicagoPatti - I have had iPods since they first came out (I'm a Mac user) - I've gotten more people to buy them because they hear mine. I have a 30 g. & a Nano. I've never had a problem with the 30G. They're bigger & more stable. The Nanos are sweet, but fragile. I'd recommend them as a 2nd device. But they're very lightweight. If you get tired carrying things, as I do, they're wonderful.  I have an mp3 and so does my daughter.  We listen to a lot of music in our house.  I have musicmatch on my computer and listen to music all the time.

It depends on my mood for music choice, but I like anything from techno to Enya.  I love it all.

Michael Buble has a really good cd that I listen to a lot that you might like.

Thanks for your recommendation.

I was definitely thinking of the larger size.  If I am going to do it, I am going to do it right.  It really does take me awhile to make a large purchase though.

Also, the iPod has an attachment and it can work as a digital recorder.  That can be very handy if you have to record audio for anything, or lectures, etc.  Just an fyi.  I think the attachment is 29 dollars. The other thing about the iPods is, you can buy the Apple Care protection for them. It's an added expense - but you don't have to buy it the day or even the month you buy the iPod. Apple Care is fabulous. They really do cover anything that goes wrong (except YOU dropping it). They're replacing my Nano now, and they've repaired countless computers. It's worth it. If anyone ever needs advice about iPods & music, I'd be happy to help.    My choices for music in the car are:

   For driving to Vegas..... soundtract Armageddon, Tina Turner- her hits, Styx, Three Dog Night, my personal copy of music used in Copperfield illusions.

   For driving around town.....Kelly Clarkson, Phil Collins, Toto, Neil Diamond

   When I'm working graveyard... John Denver, Barry Manilow, Lionel Richie, Backstreet Boys

   I play my music to fit the mood I'm in.
