What new music did you get for Christmas?


...I'm enjoying Mary Gauthier's "Mercy Now" at the moment. Highly recommended kind of like a 'dark' Lucinda Williams. Her first CD, "Filth and Fire" is great too. Got a handfull of other new music...I'll add to the thread as I listen to them.

Anyone else get new music they can recommend...?

"Mercy Now" is indeed great.....musical gifts I'm currently enjoying are...

Jesse Sykes & the Sweet Hereafter, Oh Girl...if you like Lucinda & Mary Gauthier this is a must hear.

Jonathan Edwards & the Seldom Scene, Blue Ridge...two great talents merge for this release from 1988, soon to be one of my alltime favorites.

Ryan Adams, 29

Oliver Nelson, The Blues & the Abstract Truth, a jazz classic from 1961 with an allstar cast (Haynes, Evans, Dolphy, Chambers, Hubbard)

Soundtrack from the Big Lebowski, She bought me this & the DVD

I just wanted to mention my favorite Holiday music for those who have not had the privilege of hearing...A Charlie Brown Christmas by the Vince Guaraldi Trio

cheers & enjoy
The new "rediscovered" Monk and Coltrane at Carnegie Hall. Great sound and great music!
I purchased last month on the internet and received on the 20th The Mission Uk "Lighting The Candles" a 2 DVDs set including a 2004 concert, solo performances, rare footage, photos, interviews and a bonus cd with live tracks.
