My aggressive journey to say a few words. (AKA) I'll be saying stuff that won't matter to many of you but it'll ALL mean something to me.

I want to see what happens when I listen to nothing but jazz for a month. Will it change the way I behave?

Well, I've always liked jazz but I don't have any cd's worth listening to yet. Before I can see what a jazzed up life would be like I need some tunage. Does anybody have any good suggestions for me to go look into.

I'm thinking about just buying as many as I can in the shortest amount of time as I can. This way I won't already be "tired" of any of the cd's when I start my experimentation.

I would appreciate it if you'd tell me the store to go to for the cd's too. I'm not going to get any off the internet for reasons I'm not going to get into, but if you point me in the right direction I would be very thankful.

Capt. over and out!

Yeah, the only one I know is Miles Davis. Maybe it's because I did a report on him once but he's awesome!

Ah, Capt...I had no idea you were a fellow Jazz lover....don't worry about buying CD's they're in every store and they're so freaking cheap because people today don't appreciate it....but you'll have that. Also, I recommend 103.5FM WJZA smooth jazz, baby... I listen to it off and on...it calms me down....

Well good luck in your endeavor,

Make sure you get some of the recordings that John Coltrane and Miles Davis made together. They'll blow your mind.
