What's your latest "Discovery"

You know when you buy a new album and it just clicks?! And then you have to play it rather frequently in the mix over and over for the next several days....What's the last album's you bought that really clicked for you?

I just picked up a Jazz trio album that is just a wonderful recording and performance:

It's called "Achirana" on ECM (that label seems to have a lot of great discs!). Vassilis Tsabroplulos, Piano. Arild Andersen, Double-Bass. John Marshall, Drums. Love the 5th cut! That double bass is right there in the room!

Also been enjoying a new classical guitar disc: Julian Bream, "The Ultimate Guitar Collection" on BMG. Great double-disc set. Not that crazy about the recording on this one, but the performance and breadth of the tapestry of work on those two CD's is remarkable.

Any new "discoveries" to share?

The Volebeats Solitude CD. The instrumentals I can only desctribe as Country Surf Guitar music.

Also digging the Detroit Cobras. Mink Rat or Rabbit release. Fun old school garage band sound.

The Devil Makes Three is another band that's interesting. Sort of Generation X folk music with an attitude.

And The Shins, Chutes Too Narrow CD continues to get regular play. I'm not tiring of this one at all.

I love these threads. So many great suggestions. Here are a few that I'm listening to a lot right now.

Check out the Pete Bernhard Solo CD, Things I left Behind from CD Baby. I like it better than his stuff with Devil Makes Three.

Howl, from the Black Rebel Motorcycle Club and Band of Horses, Everything All The Time, are a couple of others that I can't stop playing right now.

Another discovery from CD Baby is from the Band May Pole. Progressive Pop that reminds me of a mellower Porcupine Tree.
