| The Music I Like!!!! (part 5) |

| To your left is another one of the greatest guitarists to walk the planet. To your right is one of the greatest poet/musicians of our time. They are Jimi Hendrix and Bob Dylan. Both have put out great music, and unfortunately, Jimi can't anymore... But hey! We've still got Bob! And he's got TONS of stuff to start a collection with! On Hendirx, I'd recommend gettin' Are You Experienced, and for Dylan, I'd recommend getting Bringing It All Back Home. Ummm... That's all. |

| This is, and I know I've said this a few times, another one fo the greatest guitarists to live. Stevie Ray Vaughan made playing the way he did easy. This guy was good. DAMN good. WIth great songs like "Love Struck Baby," "Pride And Joy," "Crossfire," "Rude Mood," "Testify," and "Lenny" being, in my opinion, some of the best blues songs I've heard. The latter of the six being one of my favorite instrumentals of all time. As a starter album for Mr. Vaughan, I'd recommend Texas Flood. VERY good stuff. Plus, "Lenny" is on that one. Unfortunately, we won't be seeing anything new from Stevie Ray Vaughan. His life and talent was taken in a hellicopter accident after a concert in the early 90s. Sad, really... But all good things must come to an end. Jam on, Stevie. Jam on. |

| There is a reason that this guy's nickname is "The Boss." Bruce SPringsteen, the ringleader of The E Street Band, was one of the artists I grew up listening to. Born In The USA and Born To Run were two albums I was constantly playing... This was when I was 4. I still listen to them, though not as often. Bruce is a man with a seemingly unlimited amount of energy. The shows that he's done where he and the band go more than three hours without an intermission or anything like that are proof of that. He's also an excellent songwriter, and because since his writing style is much like Bob Dylan's, many have dubbed him as a "Dylan Wannabe." (my girlfriend included) I do not see him as such. I see him as an accomplished songwriter, performer and artist that works hard at what he does. And he does it very well. SEEN 'EM!!! |

| This, in my own opinion, is one of the funniest guys on the face of the planet. His name is Heywood Banks. He's on the Bob and Tom Show a lot. Not only does he play the guitar, but he also plays the TOASTER! I did the same at the talent show last year, and I got a standing ovation... Much like what he always gets. I've seen him about 5 times, and let me tell you, he gets better each time. Songs I'd recommend are "Eighteen Wheels On A Big Rig," "The Cat Got Dead," Perry Had A Pimple," "The One I Love," "Fly's Eyes," and "Toast." (The latter two have also been made into children's literature... This is a FAMILY SHOW this guy puts on!) For more information on how to get any of his four cds or any other merchandise, call 1-800-TOAST4U. |
