Three of the most important and enthralling creators in jazz.

Saxophonist John Coltrane’s impossibly oracular, incantatory power as an improviser simply cannot be described. He provided one of the high-water marks in music history with his ground-and-everything-else-breaking work in the 1960’s, featuring his immortal quartet {McCoy Tyner, piano; Elvin Jones, drums/percussion; and Jimmy Garrison, bass}.
One of the greatest performers, ever. Period. The mighty Neil Diamond is here featured, with some of his most powerful compositions, delivered live, with superhuman intensity. Iterations of trademark embellishments, the origins of which remain a mystery to this day, abound.
The diminutive Williams constitutes one of the leading lights in the composer-ing of the last century.
Perry Farrell and various iterations of the Addiction.
There *is* a connection between these 4 great bands.
In my head, primarily. Here are some quasi and fully prog items from Kansas, Supertramp, and Yes. And Styx.
Some high-water moments from Steely Dan, Albert Hammond, Sr., King Harvest, Hurricane Smith, Gilbert O’Sullivan, Brownsville Station, Sly Stone, Billy Paul, Dr. Hook and the Medicine Show, Stealers Wheel, The Sweet, Edgar Winter, The Isley Brothers, Dobie Gray, Stories, and Skylark.
Joaquin Phoenix, who won the Oscar for best actor, and Billie Eilish, who performed a subdued, poignant, and haunting version of Paul McCartney’s “Yesterday”, were two of the vastly gifted artists amongst the assemblage at the 2020 Academy Awards ceremony.
Immortal music from Delaney & Bonnie, Lee Michaels, The Carpenters, Daddy Dewdrop {Richard Monda}, Ocean, Cornelius Brothers and Sister Rose, Brewer and Shipley, Tommy James, Paul Revere and the Raiders {featuring Mark Lindsay}, and The Stampeders.
Featuring the remarkable voice of Marilyn McCoo.
