Music to Impress my Kid's Friends?


Lately, my college aged children have been bringing friends over to here my system and I would love to buy a few great sounding cds that are currently popular. I obviously have lots of quality music to play but it might have more impact on the kids if they were more familiar with the music. I bought the Adele cd thinking that might do the trick but was I wrong. I'd even invest in some current vinyl if I knew they would were outstanding from a recording standpoint. Thanks

Your actions are bound to get the kids to move back in when they finish college. Hey, after listening to 'quality' sound why would they want anything else.
Can't say I've heard a Grand Funk song since college, but my opinion hasn't changed. However, it's a big world; there is something for everyone.
Why do you want to impress your kid's friends? That sounds kind of creepy to me.
Irmin Schmidt & Kumo(trans and piano virtuoso)
Fourplay "Between The Sheets" :-)
Can "Monster Movie" -pioneers of electronic music. This album of early 70's sounds more like modern alternative rock with elements of r&r and punk.
Any age group would ADORE Fela Kuti's afro beat (did couple of his tunes at DJ stand and got FASCINATING crowd energy!)
Jah Wobble and Invaders of the Heart released two albums "Take me to God" and "Rising Above the Bedlum". Both of them feature drum-bass music and mixing styles from salsa and regae to alternative rock.
