Can you recommend Jazz for some one that doesn't like Jazz?

Lift Your Skinny Fists like Antennas to Heaven is fantastic. I got it some 20 years ago, my first GYBE album. Later I put it on my son's musical radar, because that's what dads do :)

Sorry about the cancellation, hope you catch them next spring.

All, jazz is such a broad and inclusive music genre, isn't post-rock like part of it? Almost? Apologies for the hijack and thanks for the great recommendations :)

Medeski, Martin, and Wood - Shack Man.

Yes, it gives me great joy when my adult sons put on an album and say, "I remember when you turned me on to this, Pops!"  Be it Led Zep, Neil Young, Talk Talk, Psychedelic Furs, Porcupine Tree, Dream Theater, Bowie, Queen, Soup...the list is endless.  They've already started calling dibs on who gets which system and which albums.  That's better than hearing a lot of old farts like me on here saying no family member is interested!

So glad to discover another GY!BE fan.  I'll never forget seeing "28 Days Later" in the movie theater and realizing Godspeed was part of the soundtrack.   I didn't have any other friends who had heard "F♯ A♯ ∞". 

Mose Allison. He was a songwriter/singer/pianist whose fans include the likes of Pete Townshend. His style was mix of Jazz and Blues, and he had a very distinctive sound and feel.
