Beck - Odelay
The man is a genius, and I never get tired of this one.
Emerson, Lake and Palmer - Trilogy
Copeland's "Hoedown" just fucking slays me, every time.
Johnny Cash - American IV - The Man Comes Around
I know I've raved about this over and over, but damn...what a piece of work this is. As a side note, the wife and I went to dinner last night at our town's best-known Greek restaurant, and the one man band guy they had there did a really decent job on "Hurt"...
Nat King Cole - Greatest Hits
Anyone see a pattern here? I love the oldies and goodies. NKC's voice is unparallelled in modern popular music. Adding to the absolute wonder of it all is the fact that lots of the stuff on this CD is recorded live in the studio, complete with the mis-starts and engineer's instructions over the studio feed. I really wish this guy would have lived longer and given us more music.
