It'll be interesting to see how this thread develops. If it's "all about the music" then I would anticipate that we'll be seeing a lot of suggestions.

I don't think I've heard any of the CDs listed by Elizabeth or Jax2.

David Torn, Mick Karn and Terry Bozzio Polytown
Dusan Bogdanovic, Miroslav Tadic and Mark Nauseef Keys to Talk By
Damian Erskine Trios
Alex Cline, Kaoru, Miya Masaoka and G.E. Stinson Cloud Plate
David Sylvian Secrets Of The Beehive
Emerson Lake and Palmer Trilogy

I found this very hard to do. What I ended up with is more a list of 7 albums I have been listening to a lot lately. It's impossible for me to nail down my 7 favorites, even by genre. I think it changes every second. I do like all of these a great deal.

Sparklehorse "It's A Wonderful Life" I was torn between this and "Dreamt For Light Years In The Belly Of A Mountain". I never knew him but I sure do miss him.....

Port O'Brien "Threadbare". A great young band you likely never heard of. Cool story to these guys too. Part time recording artists but most of the year one works on a fishing boat in Alaska and the other a cannery. Music has a real sea/fishing life/Alaska kinda tone...whatever that is!

oOoOO EP This one may not be for many on this forum. Drag or Witchouse style groove. I love it, Clams Casino being another cool one in this genre.

Alexi Murdoch "Towards The Sun". Both of his albums have been go to records for me since I first heard them. Brilliant.

Calexico "Feast Of Wire". Nuff said!

Tobin Sprout "Carnival Boy". The forgotten piece of the original Guided By Voices.

Magnolia Electric Co. "Fading Trails". Recorded under this name and also Songs: Ohia and some under Jason Molina.

That was rough but there you have it! Hope someone finds one they enjoy in there. I'm following this thread in search of some learns from you guys.
