More Moon

Some music critic's, so taken with Tom Moon's 1000 Recordings book, might think it's a good idea to want to hear every one of his selections. For awhile, I was thinking the same thing. But then I nixed most of the classical and opera and show tunes. I have some of those any way, in different versions. Moon's book had me thinking that I should listen to most of his Jazz suggestions. But then I checked Ben Ratliff's and a Penguin Jazz guide and now will only go for some of them. The Rock/Soul stuff will be easier to sort through, and I haven't found many there that I didn't already have. On some of his titles, I've found used and cheap, but others are tougher to get a decent price. I may be sitting on those for a long time.
