"Not Alone" by Patty Griffin off of the Living with Ghosts cd.

(it's the last track and you don't want it to end)
Terence Blanchard "A Tale of God's Will (a requiem for katrina)". This is an amazing and haunting CD, especially the second cut "Levees". I've had this in my cd player non-stop for the last week since it was delivered.

I bought this after reading a review of it in the Washington Post. It was released this month (Agust '07), and is a must have for all Jazz fans!
"Ice" incredible, and achingly beautiful guitar solo by Andy Latimer, from Camel "I Can See Your House From Here".

Also Camel "A Nod and a Wink" especially the last track ("For Today"
