help with music?

Hello,

I'm excited by new electonincs (thank you Roger), but music isn't really about equipment.
I'd love to expand my music collection. I feel confident in my music selections for classical, vocalists and country/bluegrass. Unfortunately I don't appreciate hip-hop
I'd love to get some ideas for jazz and rock.
In jazz I like Brubeck and Miles Davis but have been lost by some of the more complex forms of jazz.
My rock is almost all old collections (like Led Z. #1 and Aqualung). A helpful granchild brought over some heavy metal but I couldn't appreciate it. Another one brought over "Dark Side of the Moon" and I loved it.
So with that in mind, could anyone tell me what I might buy in the rock/jazz music? The wonderful new stereo equipment begs me for some new music.

Thanks

There are two quick and simple ways to discover music that's similar to bands you already like. The easiest is to go to www.pandora.com. It's a web site that plays music that's similar to whatever band you enter. It's the easiest way I know to find great music from bands you may never have heard of before.

The second is to go to Amazon.com or iTunes and enter the name of a band with which you're already familiar . The search results will bring up their albums. Click on your favorite. You'll then see a list of things people purchased in addition to the album you already know you like. Most of them will be similar in style, and you can listen to samples to tell if you like them too.
