This page is off to a good start!

I've been revisiting Dead Kennedy's Plastic Surgery Disasters. I haven't listened to it since i was a teenager, and it is damn good! It totally holds up over time. Inspiring stuff.

Pharoah Sanders is great. Saw him live in Seattle about 10 years ago. Been listening to "Jazz 'n Gnawa" and "The Trance of Seven Colors" a lot lately. "Journey in Satchidananda" (Alice Coltrane) is a classic, along with the solo work he did around that time.

Latest Twilight Singers (not as dancey as before) and latest Radiohead (great late-night), the two J. Mascis and the Fog CD's (better than I recalled), the first Psych Furs (original CD "press", the re-mastered is much better sounding) and Zep I (from the box set - freaking beautiful).

Just been to New Orleans..

Rebirth Brass Band "The Rebirth of New Orleans"
(Their latest, I think. The epitome of NO brass band music?)

TBC Brass Band "Modern Times"
(Saw them perform in Frenchmen St. Wonderful. This CD is kinda old, but couldn't find anything more recent.)

Both recorded at The Music Shed in NOLA.

Ghostfunk pairs Wu-Tang member Ghostface Killah, with vintage African funk, high-life, and psychedelic rock music. Remixes by Max Tannone. It's really good and it's free.

The Jazz Buther: A Scandal in Bohemia / Sex & Travel
Classic pop from an undersung hero.

White Denim: D
Good shit, man.

Vijay Iyer, Prasanna, Nitin Mitta: Tirtha
Astounding Jazz/Indian music fusion, in the best sense. Utterly original and the guitar playing is jaw-droppingly fleet and expressive.

John Hartford: Morning Bugle / Aereo-Plain
Cynical-hipppy bluegrass with a big ol' heart. Great songs, great playing, very funny. Check it out.

Oh, man...John McLaughlin is such a beast on that stuff.

I'm no more out of my Calexico phase than I was a few months ago. For a change of pace, I've been rediscovering some Los Straitjackets, after seeing them live last week. I need a luchador mask.
