I agree with BG&Q
Each person is an individual, and as such, each will have his or her own "hot-button" as far as melody, lyrics, etc. For example, I like Porcupine Tree's "Sky moves Sideways, but there's only one cut on "Lightbulb Sun" that does anything for me. I own two Deep Purple albums, the first one (self titled, wasn't released in the US till after "Shades") and "Shades of Deep Purple". The only other thing they did that partially hit my "hot-button" was an instrumental cut called "A-200" (?) from the album "Burn". You can keep all the Zeppelin past the first album, Robert Plant solo stuff except "Big Log" and anything Genesis recorded after "Duke". I'm not writing this to piss anybody off...maybe just to embellish what BG&Q was saying. And BTW, yes Mahavishnu is as busy as DT...but McLaughlin and the boys hit my melody "hot-button" and DT doesn't (or hasn't so far). But on the other hand, you can't build the perfect radio station either, Jim and Avian, because you can't please all of the people all of the time....Aural Moon is, hands down, the best streamer I've heard....just let it flow!
