Jennifer O’Connor ‎– Over The Mountain, Across The Valley And Back To The Stars (Matador 2006)A little like 10,000 Maniacs without the charm of Natalie Merchant. Some worthy numbers. 'Tonight We Ride'

Benny Goodman Trio-Quartet-Quintet - S/T [1936-8 recordings] ‎ (RCA Victor 1956 mono)While sounding of its era, it still captures the color and vitality of the live acoustic with more delicacy than many flat modern digital recordings.
