hey, let's change the topic to power cords! That should calm it down a bit.... :)
Trying to clasify music is like trying to put books or CD's in a category. It's difficult.. well, maybe it's impossible.
An example - I was looking at DVD's by "category" on Amazon - they had Clockwork Orange and 5th Element under comedy.
All I can say about Bob James is that I found Chick Corea, Billy Cobham, Al Dimeola, Stanley Turentine, Grover Washington, Jr, and many others from the initial path of finding Bob James. I don't listen to a lot of Bob James today, but I have a soft spot in my heart because I can pin point where the journey began back in '71. He saved me from DISCO and opened my eyes that there was more to music than top 40 on the radio!
Cheers everyone- AJ
