I thought it would be interesting to get feedback from TJB fans about other instrumental artists that they enjoy. If you like the TJB, I will tend to trust your judgment about other artists. That could save me some time and money in future music purchases. I know that this topic is a little out-of-bounds, but I think a thread on this could be very interesting.
I enjoy a wide spectrum of music, depending on the mood I am in, but Herb is still number one with me. So if you have a moment, I would appreciate seeing your list. Here is mine. I have excluded all my vocal music favorites.
1. Herb Alpert/TJB
2. Chuck Mangione -- Some of my favorites are -- Memories of Shirocco, Bellavia, Chase the Clouds Away, Children of Sanchez. Chuck has great composing talent.
2. Classical -- I listen to Bach, Beethoven, Mozart, Tchaikovsky, Handel, Vivaldi, and others. I tend to stick with the most popular pieces.
3. Doc Severinsen: I ran across an album called Trumpet Spectacular that he did with the Cincinatti Pops. Some excellent pieces.
4. Mannheim Steamroller -- Some excellent music from Chip Davis and a group of talented musicians. Some standouts -- Baroque-a-Nova, Dancin' in the stars, and lots of beautiful Christmas music.
5. John Williams -- I have a few of his CD's with Movie themes and music he wrote for the Olympics
6. Chic Correa: I don't own any of his albums, but I have listened to excerpts from some of his work and I am considering making some investments. Any recommendations would be appreciated.
7. U. S. Air Force Band - I know this seems strange, but I enjoy Bugler's Holiday that I purchased from iTunes.
