Los Lobos - Disconnected In New York City (2 CD, 1 DVD)
This was recorded within a few weeks of when I saw them play their acoustic sets here. They've never sounded better!


The Wood Brothers - Ways Not To Lose
I'm an instant fan. They have managed to create fresh Americana based music with jazz and blues flavors mixed in.


The Wood Brothers - Muse
Their latest. Really good, but I'm liking their first ^ album more.


Mazzy Star - Season Of Your Day
Back after 17 years away, they have kept the moodiness but are using slide dobro on almost every song, which adds a bluesy sound that works well.


Pearl Jam - Lightning Bolt
Back at last and sounding better than ever, IMO. One of my top fav albums of the year.


Kasey Anderson - Nowhere Nights
Kasey Anderson - Live At the Triple Door
I've been buying as much from him as possible to help him since the courts ordered him to pay back money he owes or he'll go to jail. He got in legal trouble this year and sold everything, including his guitars. I've corresponded with him via email to give him support as well.
