New music

Jimi Hendrix "Valleys of Neptune". Just in case anyone has forgotten how to rock, listen to "Sunshine Of Your Love", how many times can you say, "Awesome"!!!

How is the Jacob Dylan recorded?

2010 favorites (so far):

Downtown Church - Patty Griffin
Have One On Me - Joanna Newsome

2009 favorites:

The Crying Light - Antony and the Johnsons
Balm in Gilead - Rickie Lee Jones
My One and Only Thrill - Melody Gardot
The Hazards of Love - The Decemberists
Towards the Sun - Alexi Murdoch

From this year:

Mary Chapin Carpenter, "The Age Of Miracles"
A stunning, and surprising, return to form after two albums searching in the wilderness.

Suzanne Vega, "Love Songs"
Stripped down rerecordings of her previous hits. Probably for fans only.

The best for last, from 2009:

Michael Shreve and Spellbinder "Live At TOST"
Ex Santana drummer Shrieve puts together a band with more chops than Mortons of Chicago. My favorite album of the last five years and one that has rarely been heard.

Jax2, I can't wait to dive into the new Joanna Newsom.... ;)
