I'm looking at your list...and I'm not seeing much of the following:
Blues
Country
Roots Rock
Americana
You've got some of it here...but you're really not touching much blues at all.
Country...Emmylou and not much else.
Roots Rock: Eagles and...????
Americana: A little Gram, some Neil, The Band...
By no means complete lists...but if you're going to dive into these, you should at least have some decent starting points. Hendrix and the Airplane and Beefheart are not going to take you there...and Neil and Bruce and Zeppelin are not the most direct roads to take. If you want to get into Blues, Country, Roots Rock and Americana, there are much better avenues than what you have listed to turn down to get you into some really great music. _________________ I'm leaning on the threshold

Though it is very true that the examples youve provided are the either stripped down, early/fundamental, or more concise/basic examples of these genres, we're going to have to agree to disagree here that my selections are not part of those genres. And, in my opinion, far superior examples in most regards. I do appreciate the recommendations however, and Ill consider revisiting some of their various works. _________________ Best Classical Best Films Best Paintings

Yes, they have an album or a few that should be included. An example of a band I havent revisited in years. _________________ Best Classical Best Films Best Paintings
Scaruffi definitely strikes me as the sexist type :(
I dont know, he champions more female artists (including obscure ones) than anyone I know of. _________________ Best Classical Best Films Best Paintings

Btw, if one is just starting out or wants the basics, a starter kit, or what-have-you, I would also agree that your recommendations are the better road to take. My selections are what I feel are the most amazing (most extraordinarily creative and emotionally/conceptually significant) examples (per my criteria). _________________ Best Classical Best Films Best Paintings
