Never I was too much in Jazz. Perhas I never took the time to dive into it though. Agree with you, Ella and Louis are not to be forgotten. have some of their work on tape still. Let me go a little bit later in time, the 70s. Electronic Music. After the kinda first steps in the 60s, perhaps even 50s, a range of artists emerged who are considered pioneers by today's artists such as Klaus Schulze, Kraftwerk, and Brian Eno. The first album by Brian I link here.
One of the earlier albums by Kraftwerk is the iconic Autobahn
What do you think of electronic music? Something you listen to sometimes, or more than sometimes?
A range of artists shall be on your list, from the Beatles to Jerry Lee Lewis to uhm ... All the oldies basically (lol) ... Owww what about Marlene Dietrich? And Edith Piaf?
