No problem and glad to have been of (some) help 

Even that "development" might not be the issue.

As with many writers, painters and famous musicians (before the rock age), many of them simply develop a comfort zone for their expression, and they start being able to respond to how they feel.

The hard part for you and I, since we tend to ignore the history of literature, painting and music, is the bunch of artists that produced an astonishing amount, and we don't know how and why ... but there it is ... you look at Cezanne, and if you try to make sense of it, you can't. You look at Roy Harper and his folk material, and there is no reason to even consider starting an idea of what he is about ... if you try to even discuss this with him, he'll probably give you the finger and go play somewhere else! And, of course, deservedly so!

This is why, it is hard for me to recommend something ... yes, I can make those, but when you listen to them side by side, your appreciation gets jarred badly, because there is such an incredible difference ... and its cultural shift on top of it is an issue that most rock folks here can not deal with and still think that a special instrument makes "progressive" which is the stupidest thing ever stated! The same guitar was used in Poland, Greece, Italy, Spain, France, England, USA, Portugal, Brazil, Japan ... but no .... we have to think that this and that "makes" progressive special ... I guess that so much classical music is not as important as the Stradivarius ... which you know is the ultimate bullcrap, since it would not even be important if it weren't the damn violin itself? 

That's when you know, it's not about the music at all ... and we're taking its life out and squeezing its soul because we can't feel it ... such a social attitude when it comes to preferences and such that it makes it really hard for me to discuss "favorites".

I review Foreign Film (no top tens!), and have over 500 of those reviews ... and by the time you get to 100, you are not going to say that Babette's Feast is inferior to All The Mornings of the World, or Jean de Florette and Manon des Sources ... the whole idea becomes so scary ... and it is soooooo American that folks can't even see how it has become an incredible machine for selling the stuff many corporations want you to buy so they can make money!

I like to think of what Shakespeare would say about that ... The Fool would probably say ... recommendations are for the fools. In Michel de Ghelderode's Escuriel, The Fool would say ... recommendations are a good time for me to spend in your bed with your queen!

This is just weird enough to be fantastic! Haha. Good suggestion, thanks.
