Ever since I got iTunes I've been feeling like I need a music education. I feel like I don't have the basics. I have never heard songs (As far as I know. Or at least bought) songs from such icons as
-Johnny Cash
-Elvis Costello
-The Rolling Stones
-Ray Charles
-Buddy Holly
-Coldplay
And so on. Many I can't recall. And I've only bought 1 song from
-U2
-REM
What I'm saying is that I need reccomendations for the basics. The basic songs that I really haven't had any exposure to. I would really like to get into each of these artists (And others I might not have listed) but it's hard to know where to start. I really want to get a good music library. It might help ya'll to know what I do like. Well for starters:
-Stuck In The Middle With You - Stealers Wheel
-Little Green Bag - George Baker Selection
-It's Your Thing - The Isley Brothers
-Bang Bang (My Baby Shot Me Down) - Nancy Sinatra
-Walk On - U2
-At Last - Etta James
-Everybody Hurts - REM
-Green Onions - Booker T. and the MGs
-Cissy Strut - The Meters
-You Never Can Tell - Chuck Berry
-Be Still My Soul - Lisbeth Scott
-Son of a Preacher Man - Dusty Springfield
-September - Earth Wind and Fire
-Run Faye Run - Issac Hayes
-My Weakness - Moby
-Everloving - Moby
-Battle Without Honor or Humanity - Tomoyasu Hotei
-Autumn in Connecticut - Elmer Bernstein
Actually I love all of those and yes I am aware that about 1/4 of them are from Tarantino flicks. Like I said, I really want a solid music library/collection. Any reccomendations would be welcome. And don't just limit yourselves to the bands aformentioned. Any essentials that I might not have because of my musical stupidness.
