Hello everybody. I haven't posted on here in quite awhile. Well I am desperately seeking all kinds of new music so I am posting a thread in each genre asking for your recommendations! I know a little about jazz but I am looking for your finest recommendations from all the genres in this forum. Thank You!
Sometimes I lay under the moon and thank God I'm breathing.
And I pray "Don't take me soon "cause I am here for a reason"
Sometimes in my tears drown but I never let it get me down
So when negativity surrounds, I know someday, it'll all turn around.

old classic artists like:
Bobby Darin
Dean Martin
Perry Como
might be worth a try as easy listening 'crooners'
as for soft rock maybe try Steely Dan(very underrated and under appreciated band predominantly from the 1970s

They were big in the 70s....for five minutes,on a Saturday,after lunch..." - Me 2014.

Those are great starts thank you! I agree Steely Dan is super underrated!
