Any suggestions for good obscure music?

Doesn't have to be too obscure. But I'm looking for some new stuff to listen to. Good music that's well recorded by someone I haven't heard of. Any suggestions?
If anyone is interested I would suggest a compilation disc titled "A Nod to Bob" on Red House Records. This is a tribute to Bob Dylan by artists on the Red House label. Not one bad rendition on the cd. Although they were all written by Dylan, there are a few I hadn't heard before.
I've purchased several cds by artists found on this disc and have yet to be disappointed. I'm listening to Greg Brown "Covenant" now. He's one of the artists on the Nod to Bob. Great stuff with wonderful sonics.

Timrhu - Along with the interesting input you're getting here, you may also want to check out Pandora, which not only will suggest songs based upon your input, but will play them in their entirety. You'll get some good input there too. Also, I based on your mention of John Prine's storytelling, I'll strongly reiterate the recommendation for Jeffrey Focault. You will not be disappointed - I'd bank on it! Slaw3 - I have, and enjoy, 3/5 of your suggestions so I'll definitely check out the others. Good suggestions! Soniqmike - I've heard a few cuts from William Shatner's CD , and they were all humorous or satirical. Not bad at all, but these cuts don't sound like what you are describing. Maybe he has more than one CD out(?). Steuspeed - Thanks for the book suggestion...I didn't even know she was an author as well. I do have her solo CD and enjoy it as well - If you have not heard "Redbird" definitely check that one out too. Good thread! Thanks Timrhu. Marco |
Well I have my work cut out for me now. I've been going to cdbaby for a few years now with mixed results. Some wonderful stuff along with some not so. Maybe I'd be better off if I took advantage of the preview function. A really good, and unexpected as I'm not a true jazz enthusiast was Micheal Halaas - The Lucidity Project. Piano, cello, guitar, and some percussion, beautiful. Thanks to all, I've already ordered a couple of your recommendations Marco. I hope the suggestions keep coming. |
