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

Asa -- 'Beautiful Imperfection'. 2010 release I think that I first heard this year. In my top few discoveries for the year. Also a very good recording on most tracks.

This one comes with a disclaimer:

95% are going to be deeply disturbed by this record but the 5% that dig bass music, dub techno, tribal, minimal, glitch stuff are going to freak on it. If you love Shackleton, Burial, Deadbeat, Scuba, Raime or even some of the Raster-Noton stuff like Senking (brilliant!)then eat this up...

Andy Stott "We Stay Together"

Equally as brilliant is his last, "Passed Me By"

Very heavy rotation here.

Correction on that Stephen Stills recommendation from a few posts back: The album was called, "Stills Alone".

Tierney Sutton - American Road

Just heard this this morning. Amidst the plethora of female vocalists around this album just speaks to me. Great songs, great delivery, great voice, great backing band, great sound. I only wish it were available on vinyl.
