Best CD I've heard so far 2011.........

All right folks - you have gotten my interest. I have never heard of the following artists which I have in my Amazon cart as of 10 minutes ago:
Deep Dark Woods
Shara Worden/MBD
Dark Was the Night/Compilation
Danger Mouse
James Blake
Mtn Goats
Gilliam Welch- Time
Girls

Now, any comments before I place my order?

I am a young 65, recently retired, and a fan of music since Buddy Holly. My favorites since then have ranged from Otis Redding, Janis Joplin, Joe Cocker, Jackson Browne, and Anthony and the Johnsons. I have wanted to branch out and Anthony's songs on a couple of tv series perked my interest in new music outside my comfort zone.

I have relied heavily upon Richard Stacy's recommendations and would enjoy his comments, time willing.

Oh, I just added Hank III "Cattle Callin" after hearing it on Sirius satelite radio. An electronic eclectic sound in the background of a cattle auctioneer - very unusual. One reviewer on Amazon said he would like to see a group of druggies on LSD locked in a room with that mucic playing very loudly.

Didn't know the new Wilco was out yet.

You can listen to the new Wilco album for free (legally) at NPR Music First listen.

The Wilco reminds me of Radiohead's Amnesiac.
