What should I check out?

The past year or so: busy with life, no 'gon, no new music, but listening to my extensive library of tunes. Can you give me a top 10 I should be checking out? No country music, please. ANYTHING else from Kitaro to Thelonious. Fire away. Thanks in advance, warren

Wow, some great responses . . .

I'll second Tvad's Gateway recommendation, and add the eponymous first album, (from 1974-ish) to the mix.

Josquin des Pres - "missa L'homme arme sexti toni" - performed by the Tallis Scholars.

Bebo & Cigala (Bebo Valdez & Diego "El Cigala") - "Lagrimas Negras"

All of John Holloway's recent baroque-violin recordings on ECM, with works of Biber, Schmeltzer, Veracini, & Bach.

Eric Dolphy & Booker Little - "Far Cry"

Gidon Kremer & Kremeratica Baltica - "Silenco"

Charles Dodge, "Any resemblence is purely coincidental."
