The Good Stuff


There are simply two kinds of music, good music and the other kind ... the only yardstick by which the result should be judged is simply that of how it sounds. If it sounds good it's successful; if it doesn't it has failed. --  Duke Ellington

This purpose of this thread is to provide a place to post outstanding examples of the Good Music. 
Genre Immaterial.

My CD has a different cover art, but it is the same album.

Life on Planet Grove - Maceo Parker

This live performance is on fire. James Brown is the obvious similarity, but I was also thinking Earth, Wind, and Fire.
