Best CD I've heard so far 2011.........

hey Ray, yeah that's a good one too. try "we'll never turn back" w/ry cooder, jim keltner, ry's son, etc....if you ever have a chance to see her live - do it. she played at magnoliafest up here on the suwannee river a couple years ago. she stood on stage & took one look at the aging hippy audience & exclaimed "you all the flower childrens"

Pehare,Suwannee river,,,Im in Bradenton,Braden river is in my backyard!Another im enjoying is Hamilton Loomis,Aint Just Temporary,very good recording ,very tight band!

I love the James Blake album. One of the most original albums to come out of the electronica genre. Equal to the recent albums by The XX and Burial at defining the London music scene.

The James Blake album is a hynoptic lullaby-- the best accompaniment to an afternoon cat-nap since Susanna "Flower of Evil".

Jazz:
Benny Green Trio "Source"

Pop/Rock:
The Kills "Blood Pressures"
The Head & The Heart "Eponymous"
