For A New Fan What's A Good Album To Start With?

[Everett]

You actually have a 9 year old comparing keyboard techniques? You should do a reliability test and have him listen to Keith Emerson versus Neil Dougherty - just to make sure he knows his stuff. If he likes the REO crap, never pay for piano lessons!

That's neal doughty. What a nine year old can't have an opinion? He's very outspoken for someone his age if he doesn't like something you'll hear about it, (trust me I learned that the hard way).

you cant go wrong with the grand illusion followed by pieces of eight, crystal ball, paradise theatre and then cornerstone.

I've made a lot of people Styx fans by putting on Paradise Theater. Most people are hooked after just hearing "Rockin the paradise".

After your brother gets hooked, then let him listen to the masterpeice "the Grand illusion". The incredible harmonies in "Superstar" alone should hook anyone with an ear for talent.
