Audiogon "RECORDINGS TO DIE FOR" list

Here's my list, I look forward to seeing yours. (*I also started new thread for favorite ecclectic collection so we could begin fresh)

1.Govinda "Entwined and Entranced" (An amazing recording with synth, guitar, rich vocal accents and sounds undescribable)

2.Patick O'Hearn "Trust" (Ambient,New Age, synth)

3.Karsh Kale "Liberation" (Sound will pour from this CD, synth,programing,Madras Orchestra and much more....your speakers will scream)

4.Ulver "Perdition City" (Dark ODD well recorded CD of strange sounds and images)

5.Kruder and Dorfmeister "K and D Sessions" (For those who thought they would not like techno, strong recording!)

6. Brainbox "Primordia" (Another one of my strange CD'S...a feast for ears)

7. Preston Reed "Metal" (Accoustic Guitar Virtuoso)

8. Unitone "A Portrait of Strings" (A compilation of some amazing accoutic guitar artists)

9. Pat Metheney "Quiet Nights" (Accoustic Guitar Baritone

10. Robert Stanton "Accoustic Storm" (20 Bit recording, hard to find)

11.Joe Banamassa "blues deluxe" (One of the better recorded rock/blues genre. Ths guy is amazing)

12. Ryan Adams "Gold" (Nice recording and good song writing, a tad melancholy but solid)

13.Al DiMeola "Kiss My Axe" (One of my favorite recordings, tons of info to hear, very crisp)

14.Jackson Browne "The Naked Ride HOme" (Sweet recording, voice is pwoerful, musicians tight, great song writing, his best IMHO)

Here's a link to what was described for Tony Levin, there a few 30 second sound bites on site, I just ordered a copy, because it is VERY different.

Since I upgraded my amp to the Theta Dreadnaught II, the GREAT recordings now stand out, and this should be pretty cool.

To get a well recorded disc, IMHO I would purchase a CD for that reason, even if it wasn't a "favorite" recording for its content. My selection of ULVER Perdition City would fall under that heading. I'll have to rethink my collection and come back with a few more that might fit this category of UNIQUE sounding discs.....Recent Mathew Shipp would fall into that, even though Jazz.....nebula like in some of its sounds...

Duratek

Dr John "Auntha Zone" Gravelly soulful tight Louisianna funk

Roxy Music "Avalon" CLASSIC!

Best performance of a song live "Doors Essential Rarities track 14 "The END"

Kenny wayne Shepherd "I found love when I found you" from Trouble IS (great Blues CD)

And the new Dave MAthews Solo ALbum "You Devil" is recorded AWESOME.....
