Sanborn is cool.
But if you listen to modern jazz, like Diana Krall and you still don't get it, stop trying cause thats as good as it gets.
If you want old school as others have said, try Brubeck. And if you don't get that, quit trying to like it!
I'm sure this has all been said already, so I would like to add this BBQ tip.
Buy Rib Eye Steaks from the butcher counter at WEGMANS. They usually have a BBQ cut that is 2" thick by 8" long and if they dont have it, ask for it! They will cut it for you.
Now since we have the music and steaks covered, I would like to recommend Mouton Cadet (red) to go with the meal and as afinishing touch, a TUERO cigar.
Available only in Canada or at Duty free, since it is Havana seed but grown in Quebec.
A perfect night for me is:
Bottles of Blue (the real thing)
Rib Eyes from Wegmans (thick cut) on the BBQ
Mouton Cadet red for dinner wine as it compliments the beef.
TUERO cigars after the fact that makes it complete.
