Front Porch String Band - "Lines and Traces" - Rebel Records. I'm not really a bluegrass enthusiast but I continue to be drawn back for another listen. The faithful recording (really very nicely done) and beautiful vocals of Claire Lynch just make listening an enjoyable experience. Listening to track 6, Kinnesaw Line, makes me realize why I strive for capable reproduction in the first place. Truth and beauty can pop up anywhere. I like this thread and plan to check out out some of the finds. Thanks.
My latest find. What's yours?

I love browsing the music stores, looking for something new and interesting. I admit, the percentages are not good, buying cds unheard. I read reviews and browse through the racks losing track of time. It is so rewarding when I find that gem. The reason for this post is my latest find, my new favorite cd. Wow! Kenny Barron and Regina Carter, title, "Firefall", on Verve, 314 549 706-2. It's a jazz recording of piano and violin. Five star performance and sonics. There is a version of Sting's "Fragile" that is out of this world. The bass notes on piano are startling. There are also tracks by Monk, Wayne Shorter and Oscar Hammerstein.
Just to be clear, this is anything but lounge music. It is original, different and inspiring. If anyone takes a chance, I would love to hear your impressions.
Also, what recordings have you come accross, that make all those duds worthwhile?
