An evening with John Petrucci and Jordan Rudess.
Extreme musical talent, every one that loves music must have it!!!!!!!!!!

Yes , an excellent choice ........ those two musicians are way too brilliant for a casual listen ... I have met John Petrucci

Elliot Smith's "XO"
Ben folds "rockin the suburbs"
^I wouldnt say it is something everyone should have, espcially if his music isnt your bag of cookies. but it is fun
CCR's "Green River"
Pat Methany's "still life talking" Although, I have only heard this album and have been told others are much better. "last train home" is a must listen to kind of song.

You've met him, that is sooo cool!
I introduced my friend to Dream Theater, and he showed me that CD "an evening with John Petrucci and Jordan Rudess" and I fell in love with it.

some Led F'n Zeppelin!

As much as I love Dream Theater, I can't recommend them to everybody. They're not diverse enough. I still haven't met one person who hasn't like at least some of their stuff though!

On a road trip with one of my friend a couple of weekends before, I put in some DT. He knew who they were because another of our friends got him to listen to 'a really long song' by them. I put on tracks 4 & 5 from A Change of Seasons and that changed his mind about them right away.

Now he doesn't mind them.

I'm pretty darn sure that Dark Side of the Moon is a staple for most people's collections.

Van Halen's 1984 and 5150

Here's some homework for you:
Listen to Van Halen I, then listen to VH 1984 and 5150 and tell me that VH1 doesn't absolutely destroy anything else that's VH has ever...and I mean eeever done. Women and Children First is better than 1984 IMO as well.

5150 isn't Van Halen! There's no DRL!!!! It's Van Hagar. Heresy!!!!!

well well. you went kind of poppy on me, but the fact that you mentioned jack johnson and ben harper twice each makes up for it.

Hehe...looking at the list he had, it was mainly Aussie stuff that will probably never see international release.

AND get the original Broadway Cast CD set (Not the highlights, the other version) with Michael Crawford and Sarah Brightman....

And while you're at it...get the DreamCast version of Les Miserables....LOL

BTW, that's December 22nd in select cities...nationwide on January 21.

I was so dissapointed when they change the date, all year I've been waiting for this movie to come out December 3rd, and sometime in late december they changed it to december 22nd, in select cities, by the way my city was not selected ...but I'm going anyways.

Indeed, and my fave music does that quite nicely!

Stefania777 · Dec 9, 2004

I love all kinds of music, so you gatta throw a little bit of everything into your music diet,

so for those of you "active" listeners, buy a spearhead CD!
this awesome reggae band will keep you dancing all night/day long, and good lyrics too.

What does 'universal release' actually mean?

By saying "universal release" (which I made up), I mean to say that, since there is no language in the vocals (it's gibberish, just poetic gibberish), as well as the lack of liner notes, ( ) would appeal to all people of all nations.

And it would be the only record in anybody's release, seeing as it goes from almost-classical sounding minimalism to crescendoing, soaring climaxes, appealing to listeners of multiple genres.

Everyone's music collection should include....
