There are thousands of little known musicians who have made brilliant recordings and are (imho) criminally under appreciated. Almost everyone hates some great artistic achievments,(most oprea or c&w efforts usually hit the gag reflex here). Few people easily break out of the "I like what I know and I know what I like" syndrome, as a result we miss out on alot of asthetically rewarding stuff. If you listen to King Crimson,(early Bruford era), Mahavisnu Orch. (1st two), Capt. Beefheart, Massacre (Fred Frith), most of Can and the stuff really sinks in (plays back in yer' head alot), you are in trouble. You will probably be broke from a need to score stuff like: Acme Rocket Quartet (1st), Air (w/Fred Hopkins), Amoebic Ensemble, Arcana, Area (start w/ Crac), Art Zoyd, Arti+Mestieri, Attention Deficit,Back Door, Banyan, Joey Baron, Bass Army, Bella Band, Gregg Bendian, Tim Berne, Bi Kyo Ran, Birdsongs of the Mesozoic, Ed Blackwell, Blast, B.L.U.E., Raoul Bjorkenheim, Blind Idiot God, Hamiet Bluiett, Boom, Christer Bothen, Francois Bourassa Trio, Brand X, Anthony Braxton, Caspar Brotzmann, Alain Brunet, Hasse Bruniusson, Buckethead, Don Caballero Uri Caine Alex Candelaria, Cartoon, Chainsaw Jazz, Thomas Chapin, Gigou Chenevier, Nels Cline, Clubfoot Orch. Roberto Columbo, Conglomerate, Graham Connah, Conventum, Cos, Vincent Courtois, Curlew, Andrew Cyrille, DFA, Dark, Data Direct, Daniel Denis, Jean Derome Deus ex Machina, Doctor Nerve, Dave Douglas, Paul Dresher, Marc Ducret, Dun, Trevor Dunn, Dysrhythmia, Either Orchestra, Embryo, James Emery, Ensemble Nimbus, Equip Out, Ellery Eskelin, Etna, and Everyman Band to name a few from the A - E crowd.
