A couple good albums I've just glommed onto:

Los Campesinos!: Sticking Fingers Into Sockets (6 songs, 16 minutes, a punk group that finds the right balance between "pretentious and pop").

Nellie McKay: Obligatory Villagers (A feminist with a sense of humor).

If you've heard anything great lately, let us all know, eh?:clap:

John Coltrane: A Love Supreme Live.

2nd CD of the deluxe edition, or the Marsalis?

Most people leave the room when I fire this one up...

I am not sure if this is the same recording as what's on the deluxe ed. I found it on emusic. 30 tracks for $9.99, so the Coltrane cost me a grand total of 2 tracks (66 cents) as opposed to the album only ****e they pull on iTunes.

You should consider ditching those people who leave the room when you put on Trane!

My Morning Jacket, New Panic and Drive-By Truckers for me!!

the new Truckers is first-rate. I grew up in the North Alabama town where Hood and Cooley formed their first band, Adam's House Cat. I was extremely happy over their success, which surprised me since I'm usually such an envious type.

This week I'm spinning Lily Allen's "Alright, Still" an early 2007 release but new to me. Also a bunch of love songs since Cupid finally got around to me.

If it's live and actually Coltrane, it's the recording from the deluxe edition. That's the only live performance available. It was from a festival in France.

Funny you say that, because just today, I had it cranking, and the thought ran through my mind that most people just don't get it, and that is fine by me. Miles plays some very personal music, which speaks only to the lucky few.

We were separated at birth, I am absolutely convinced. I've been listening to Vampire Weekend for the last month or so. VW is the up music, and the new Jack Johnson is the downtime music.

I believe all of the above have some live shows which can be downloaded for free at tapers.org, but you have to have some skills. (compliments of John R and a few other tapers -- free to download and share, but not for selling)

Now granted, Black Beauty may be a little on the periphery...but Miles Davis is pretty universal, isn't he? Kind of Blue is loved by everyone.
