No puedo estar en desacuerdo con los albums que escogiste, adicionalmente me sorpendió ver a muchos artistas mexicanos (lo digo de la mejor manera jajaja) Y también me voy dando cuenta de que Re casi llega entra en el top 1000 de BEA, eso me hizo la noche.

Nice.
John Coltrane - A Love Supreme? Bob Dylan? Charles Mingus? Time Out - Dave Brubeck Quartet? Im basing myself off of your selection for these suggestions.
