Suggest one obsure album we all should hear

"Blue Maqams" by Anouar Brahem. I discovered it last year.

It’s a fusion of jazz and Middle Eastern.

I always knew I was searching for this album without ever realizing that I was searching for an album that fused jazz and middle eastern.

agree... this music is just sublime...

I an also a big fan of Braden’s “Thimar” album.

Bass Communion I 

Steven Wilson's dark ambient masterpiece, the 2018 RSD reissue on tonefloat records 

Agnes Obel - Myopia

Impossible to boil down to just one, so my idea is for these two. Flip a coin each day, and for heads listen to "From The Hip", by Con Brio, and for tails listen to "Badlands", by Trampled Under Foot. You'll thank me later.
