"Good friends we've had, good friends we've lost,
Along the way;
In this great future you can't forget your best,
So dry your tears I say."

The Entire Marley Family!
1. The Honorable Robert Nesta Marley & the Wailers (B M W) A. Songs of Freedom is excellent. I've bought it 4 times so far. B. Everyone seems to have Legend, although I have a soft spot for 'No Woman No Cry' as I was serenaded with that song by my 1st boyfriend C. Kaya and Babylon by Bus are my 2 favorite albums 2. Ziggy Marley & the Melody Makers A. It's all good, but I'm partial to JahMekYa and the live concert tributes to Bob on Marley Magic. On the newest release, there is an excellent remake of High Tide or Low Tide.
3. Not enough space to go into depth about all the other musicians, but I also like Buju Banton, Freddie McGregor, Patra, Gregory Isaacs, etc, etc, etc!

DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDance!!!!!!
This is rather easy because I usually buy Club Mixes and there are too many bands to keep track of! The best compilations seem to come from Ibiza, Spain; England; Germany; and I bought a good one from Down Under as well! Pet Shops Boy's Very Necessary can be listened to from start to finish!
*Rock 'n Rhythm * Rhythm 'n Rock *
Peter Gabriel (Especially SO, US, Secret World Live)*U2 (Especially Unforgettable Fire for MLK, Jr & Achtung Baby)*INXS (Kick but of course and I love 'Not Enough Time')*Duran Duran (Creative Souls Indeed, some of the Best Videos)*Madonna (Erotica & song 'Erotica' sounds like she's saying my name in the song!, Like a Prayer Album)*Prince (some is a bit bizarre, but full of classics)*Michael Jackson (no matter what the tabloids say, from Jackson5 to today, music is all good!)*Janet Jacket (favorites are Rhythm Nation and Janet)*Gypsy Kings/MC Solaar my favorite music not in English!*Eric Clapton, Led Zeppelin, The Rolling Stones and much of Classic Rock is still Kickin'*
George Michael (Too bad for the female race, but great music)* REM (Another group that stimulates the mind!)* Phil Collins (because my paternal grandmother also had the last name Collins and the music is great)* Bryan Adams (maternal grandmother's last name and classic songs) * Amber (because a friend of my father* Dave Matthews (saw his fabulous tour for 'Under the Table and Dreaming')*Matchbox 20 (Overplayed on the radio and I still like it!)*Amber (my father's friend gives me amber jewelry and the singer reminds me of her)*I must also mention that I enjoy a lot of Rap & Funk & Soul. But like dance, there's too little room to mention everyone. I still like some of the less harsh tunes on NWA 1991 efilrofzaggin and the Juice Soundtrack, Naughty by Nature, and LL Cool J, and Ice Cube. I also really like groups like En Vogue & TLC. I really think my childhood friend Jon knows more than I do about rap.
 
It's hard to mention everyone, but I adore music and have over 400 CD's as my witness....
