Dude, we agree on tons. It may seem weird but I don't consider Django or Calloway quite on that level- too silly to be taken that seriously, imo. But still great music. Blakey and Sun Ra are great choices. That's music I respect on the highest level. I've taken some crap for it but I love Fleetwood Mac. My wife says that whenever a song comes on and I comment on how much I love it, it always turns out to be Fleetwood Mac. I think Swans put out their best stuff in the 80's but it's still a great name to have on there.
