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?

Kari Bremnes, a Norwegian singer/songwriter. I first heard her on Tom Russell's "The Man From God Knows Where" (also on that cd are Iris Dement and Dolores Keane). Hard to describe Ms. Bremnes music, and only one of her cds is in English. I'd recommend the Tom Russell cd, and then if you are as taken with her voice as I am, try some of her own cds from

www.kkv.no

or, another discovery of sorts, Harmony Ridge Music, www.hrmusic.com, specializing in women singer-songwriters, with a large and interesting catalog.
