Audiogoners-some musical recommendations

It'll be noted by some that I occassionally have a go at Audiogon members for their lack of imagination and investigation for checking out new music.
I don't wish to seem arrogant or a know-it-all but I intend (hopefully with some support)to recommend some music that Audiogon members may have missed-it may be recent,it may be old-this should be similar to what Sd Campbell did with Jazz.
I will focus as well on the audio quality and obviously describe the music and how immediate it is etc.-I also intend to pick music that I believe most Audiogon members will like or won't be too stretching-so I won't go too obscure or extreme.
Hopefully for a few dollars some members at least will discover some new music that they might have missed.
Of course it will be nigh on impossible to recommend anything that some members won't own or have heard but hopefully the thread relating to that release can remain active for a while and lead to discussion regarding that release-if you do wish to criticise anything please state why and perhaps consider leaving the thread until there is some feedback from those who have checked it out otherwise it may well be counter-productive.
Anyway hopefully these contributions will be worthwhile and will at least be a positive attempt to aid musical discussion on this site.
I will post my first recommendation later today.

A good friend of mine has been producing some bands here in Los Angeles for the past several years on his own recording label. The most well-known of these bands is probably The Blue Hawaiians with whom he produced their first two releases. He's currently working with a couple different artists on some new music, and lucky for me he's given me CDs of their latest mixes during the various recording stages for me to enjoy. The music and recordings are in such an evolutionary phase that the names of the bands themselves haven't even been cemented yet.

Most of his bands are surf oriented, but the artists he's currently in studio with are creating music I can only describe as a blend of surf and jazz meets classical and space-music. Very very neat stuff, and I'm constantly playing these CDs here at work and in the car. I love 'em! They haven't been mastered yet so they don't always sound good on my system at home. I can't wait until they're finished.
