    Police "Every Breath You Take" CD(greatest hits).

    Their music is timeless, IMO. I think I'll be adding Sting to my best musician list. He's pretty damn solid on the bass.

    I have been listening to Tangerine Dream's The Dream Mixes quite frequently lately. :cool:

    However, be careful though--The Dream Mixes has very high dynamic range and I nearly blew out my Polk RTA-11's. :eek:

    Lara Fabian-- A Wonderful Life

    This is one of the CDs I took along when auditioning speakers. I noticed the salesman writting something down while I was listening. Asked him what he was doing--told me had had never heard her before & he just had to have the CD.

    Better Than Ezra - Before The Robots. Picked this one up on a whim. I was familiar with the name but never really heard their stuff. Not too bad after a quick listen.

    What's Wrong With This Picture?


    B0000A55GR.01._SCLZZZZZZZ_.jpg

    Van obviously considers himself a square peg in a round hole (what else is new?) But, if you can filter out all the musing and moaning about fame, or lack thereof, he delivers some of his very finest blues/funk/soul vocal performances.

    His rendition of "Little Wing" is........well, it's undescribable. The SDA's shed a whole new light on his music.
