LeBron is a phenominal player and MJ is a legend but you cannot possibly compare Micheal Jordan and Lebron James, MJ is the one and only and he is the truth, but right now only time will tell but untill then MJ will remain the greatest that has ever played the game of basketball!

don't mistake fusion for smooth jazz, teaim. If you're feeling the george benson thing, you'll enjoy guitarists Norman Brown, Bobby Broom, and Rodney Jones. Benson's approach is the foundation for the smooth jazz movement itself so you may want to check out his earlier straight-ahead jazz albums and those of his influences Wes Montgomery and Grant Green.

i'd reccommend joe pass, ella fitzgerald, art blakey, monk, stan getz...\n\non the newest jazz, try "tourist" by st. germain and any album of "Pink Martini" (though this last one is not jazz but salsa with jazz touches)

It's really a matter of opinion. That being said you'd have to consider any of the following:\n\nPeter Tosh\nBurning Spear\nBlack Uhuru\nGregory Isaacs\nSly and Robbie\nLee Scratch Perry\nMad Professor\n\nThe list could go on and on. While Bob is certainly the most well known, I wouldn't agree he is the "best". If it's your opinion that he is the best and you're looking for the best reggae artist besides Bob (which it looks like you are) then the answer to your question would be Peter Tosh since it was Peter who taught Bob how to play the guitar.

classical: Mozart, one of the greatest geniuses to ever live, Bach (I could listen to Art of the Fugue forever), Beethoven who took the mind where it had never been before,\npopular: Irving Berlin, a jewish immigrant who wrote the classics "White Christmas" and "Easter Parade" as well as "God Bless America" and hundreds of others, George Gershwin ("Rhapsody in Blue") Cole Porter ("I've Got You Under My Skin") Frank Sinatra (In a class by himself) and Randy Newman, the best songwriter alive.

Anything by Dave Brubeck, Stan Getz, Miles Davis, John Coltrane would be a good place to start,I don't have enough time to list every song.

Miles Davis. THis man traanslated raw emotion into sound waves. if you listen to B*****s Brew (a 30 minute song) you are taken on a journey, where he carries you from where you are to somewhere else emotionally and intellectually. Also like Thelonius Monk and John Coltrane, and for newer stuff, some of the members of The Roots (super famous and innovative hip hop group) started a jazz band called The Philadelphia Experiment that is pretty great too.

Several older black musicians (Gatemouth Brown, Junior Wells...) My #1 is Henry "Blues Boy" Hubbard. He took my husband and I under his wing, taught us to be finely-tuned musicians, put us in his band (even though we're white), and has been a joy to be involved with musically, and as our closest friend.
