CD Recommendations


Can anyone recommend a great recording in contemperary jazz or New age Music. I have about 750 cds and It seems at times I dont have anything I want to listen to. I like all kinds of music but I would like to build my jazz and new age collection a little more. I like Yanni,david arkenstone, david lanz etc and for jazz I like fourplay the rippingtons, dave koz etc. Iam tired of buying a cd and only likng 4 out of 12 songs. Thanks for your help sorry if this semms as a bogus post but I thought maybe somone can turn me on to some new artists. Thank you Daniel

Here are a couple you may not have that are favorites of mine. An oldie Dan Hicks and the Hot Licks "Where's the Money" and for your jazz tastes The Microscopic Septet "Beauty Based on Science".
I've got some of their recordings, but you really have to hear and see this band live. One of the best performing bands I've ever seen.
Steve Stevens "flamenco a go go" Al DiMeola "kiss my axe" Anything by Steve Tibbetts,Paul Haslinger "score", Bill Brufords"apart and yet a part",Bill Nelson's "after the satellite sings, Project LO " black canvas" These will get your heart pumping Not the usual New Age or smooth jazz crap
Erik Truffaz Quartet "The Mask". Killer CD musically and sonically. BTW, it's recorded out of phase, so if you have a phase switch on your CD player or pre-amp, play this disc "out" of phase, it sounds better.
