Best divorce album?
Marvin Gaye-Here my Dear  
Recommended: live jazz NYC venue, 'Bar Next Door'
Tiny place on Christopher St. The 55 Bar.This place is really excellent for local badass jazzbos...David Bowie scouted a few guys from this club and used them on his new Black Star record!! Check it out if in NYC. 
Bob Dylan MoFi

Radiohead read on

Need Help Troubleshooting Ground Hum

Badfinger, perfect end for Breaking Bad
