Freak Me Out

David, you might try "So What" a newer release from Acoustic Sounds with Jerry Garcia and David Grisman. This is a compilation of Miles Davis tunes, Bags groove, etc. Sonics are awesome not to mention the beutiful interplay of Garcia's guitar and David's mandolin. Highly recommended and also received an excellent review in TAS

david: the wimme number is on cd only (tho you might be able to buy vinyl in sweden--get me one if you're there, please). BTW, i agree with nordost that the jerry/david "so what" is a great cd. i don't find it "weird," tho. maybe that's just me?

You really want to freak out.Then get something,anything by SUNRA...Thats freaky and out to lunch.

David, a buddy gave me a CD he bought in India which is really well recorded with sound effects and Indian music, tablas, etc., with vocals. I think it is the soundtrack from a movie, but I'm not sure. Sort of *Star Wars comes to Bombay*. All of the instruments and vocals must have been miked separately and they seem to separate well, as though the performers are in a semi-circle in front of the listener. I actually use this as a reference CD (it is so well recorded) - must have listened to it a hundred times.
If you have an interest, let me know and I'll see if I can send you a copy.

MC 900 Ft. Jesus, One Step Ahead of the Spider, cut #3: If I Only Had A Brain. But be careful; the bass hits on this cut will definitely test your system's limits. Plus, there is all sorts of wierd stuff on here.
