If "Love It To Death" is your fave "new" album, might I recommend Bowie's "The Man Who Sold The World"!
Love the recommendations, not so crazy about the punctuation police. And it's a good thing I have spell check!

I will be checking out lots of these. I love Los Lobos, my favorite to date is "Kiko". They put out a dvd, "Live at the Filmore" that really cooks. Anything with a Shelby duet is on my list. Peter Gabriel is a perennial also.

I finally picked up a copy of "Soldier of Love" by Sade. More relaxed, less "club/sophisticate" arrangements. Beautiful songs. And typically, from her first album to this latest, high-end production.
I like everything I have ever heard from Los Lobos, so it dosnt have to sound like "Kiko" to interest me. Again, I recommend the "Live at the Filmore" dvd, really captures them live.
Another cd I have been spinning a lot lately is "Zombie Pimp Cowboy" by The Man From Ravcon. Music inspired by Blacksploitation, B horror movies and Spaghetti Westerns. Not demanding music to listen to, but great variety and imagination. One guy plays everything, it's a fun listen!
Eileen Ivers "Crossing the Bridge" is another cd that I keep finding myself loading into my player. Sweet acoustic to hot electric fusion. Very cool mix of Celtic fiddle and all sorts of styles and influences, some interesting guest players.
1. The Story by Brandi Carlile -just caught her show last week and love her even more now.
2. NUNSEXMONKROCK by Nina Hagan -this one is from 1983, but new to me. Intense, entertaining, absurd, totally addicting. An adventurous listen but not for the faint of heart. Perfect headphone escape.
Concrete Blonde "Bloodletting", more imaginative than I remembered or expected, so good I have ordered more of their music. Haunting, cool from 1990.
Received "Mexican Moon" today. Of all of the ways I hoped this band would go, they Rock Out Heavy exactly in the way I hoped they would. I am not a metal head, I have a certain standard when it comes to Hard Rock.
Just want to say as someone who just "discovered" Concrete Blonde, they -are- the band many others attempted to be and failed.
