Best Sounding Classic Rock Cd's
A bunch of good suggestions already.  Jumping on something tom6897 touched on way earlier: Bad Company.  Listening to Burnin' Sky right now.  It sounds great on YouTube!  Guessing the CD would be pretty great too.

nutty - Fantastic...keep the feed back coming. BTW - as a result of arcam88’s Paul Rodgers reference on the Obscure Bands thread and the link you posted to The Law, you all got me on a Bad Company jag. Someone has posted quite a few complete Bad C...

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OvjVGh0jmzY Thanks, @nutty, @arcam88 - The Law, The Firm...what is this, "Lawyers ’R’ Us"?Was completely ignorant of Rodgers ever teaming up with Gilmour. Looks like that might be well after his partnering with Page...

@dbtom2  &  @nutty - so glad you like Sugarcane.  Privileged to make the introduction.  Wish he got more love when he was alive.  He was around a lot of years.  Paid his dues.  Like Jean Luc he played with Zappa.  In fact, Zappa sort of "rescu...

@arcam88Don't know "The Law" but do recall Paul Rodgers in a "supergroup" briefly with Jimmy Page called, "The Firm".  2 albums released, maybe.  Not sure who the 3rd member was without looking things up.  Wondering if that's what you are thinking...

@dbtom2 - I’ll see your "Enigmatic Ocean" and raise you a couple of Sugar Cane Harris, "Keyzop" and "Sugar Cane’s Got the Blues". Harris is a bluesier player but maybe not as refined or technically proficient as JLP. More soul, though (for me at l...

Yesterday, listened to a few things...Stars Of The Lid and Their Refinement of the DeclineGrateful Dead Go To Heaven - no offense to hardcore Dead fans (late getting in touch with my inner Deadhead so new to me) but this one just struck me as weir... 
What's in your CDP tonight? the minority report
@nutty Did not know Rick Braun but found Full Stride on Spotify.  The sound quality seems excellent and I like the sound of his horn.  Definitely preferring instrumentals these days (with some exceptions).  Full Stride is smooth jazz I guess but d...

A rough day.  "Stars of the Lid and Their Refinement of the Decline" is helping.

Nutty - this thread has gotten some legs so not sure if I'm repeating something already mentioned but if you like Deep Purple you probably already know their "In Rock".  Sweet Child in Time is pretty memorable.  Also to radfrad, been listening to ...

Howdy N...Pleased to read you checked out Bersarin Quartett.  A LOT of his stuff is brooding. If you are willing to give more of that "genre" (modern composition, as it is sometimes called) another go, consider Acoustic Tales by Field Rotation (ak...

Hey Nutty - Never been a big AC/DC fan myself but have to say, "Dirty Deeds, Done Dirt Cheap" has some pretty funny lyrics if you are into that sort of black humor.

Rok - Not much time this AM.  Will write more later.  Great answer.  Knew of the man but not much more.  Have to say again, I enjoyed that video of his jazz band's performance that you posted.  Do you not think Wynton has any peers in today's jazz... 
Jazz for aficionados
rok - not trying to be a provocateur but why should anyone care what Wynton says about who is playing "Jazz"?  Granted he is a talented jazz musician...an accomplished, celebrated artist.  But is he "keeper of the flame" as it were?  I'd be real i...
