How do you like my taste in music?

Recommended Posts

I second Paco De Lucia and Tchaikovsky, good shit right there.

Check out the live album De Lucia did with John McLaughlin and Al Di Meola, forget what it's called exactly, "Live in San Francisco" or something similar...

How about "Friday Night in San Francisco"?

Great album

Yeah, the only one. :rolleyes:

The original list has some goodies but it's very limited in scope. Do you have a network of friends where you can share in their various tastes? That's how I always did it.
