James Taylor, Hourglass. Can't leave it alone. Personal, intelligent, melodic, emotional.
Sade, Lover's Rock. This one grew on me. Great lights out music.
Byrds, Sweetheart of the Rodeo. Good harmonies, very tasty. Their music is timeless.
Virginia Rodriguez, Nos. What a voice! The first 3 songs are really powerful, even if in Portugese. Hypnotic, sacred music. Reminds me of Iz.
Duke Ellington, at Newport, 1956. Jumpin. This material, written in the '30s & '40s, nearly caused a riot. Imagine!
Paul Simon, Negotiations & Love Songs. Always come back to this. Fun to listen to the sonics improve as the recording technology advances.
