I keep recommending the same CD over and over:


Nellie Mckay - Get Away From Me

Her live shows are fascinatingly bizarre as I just experienced recently.

I don't know why I'm putting so much effort into bad-mouthing an album I actually like.

Start with these recent works.





Jazzanova, in between -- IMHO, this album does for electronica what A Love Supreme does for jazz (caveat: not a direct comparison to ALS).

nod This group is definitely on point. After I heard their album on my Launchcast player, I was hooked. I want to catch them in concert.

Digable Planets, Blowout Comb -- Known and marginalized as hippie-hoppers for their classic album Reachin' and the Grammy-winning "Cool Like Dat", these cats followed it up with the most overlooked masterpiece in hip-hop. The beats are flawless and the rhymes are on point.

Absolutely. One of my favorites from high school. The care taken with rhymes and beats is amazing. In that respect it reminds me of The Love Movement by A Tribe Called Quest.


Indeed.

oh, i agree. i think it's completely melodramatic. sometimes it's a little too heavyhanded/overbearing for me to get into, but when i'm in the mood for it...oh my GOD, i love it.


I think the cabaret backdrop of the album serves as an effective way of "exposing" the cracks in society at the time. The album almost sounds like a play with many acts as a result. I do find it incredibly depressing, and as it sounds so exposed, it is all the more effective to me.


Damn.

Moonbeam's BACK?

Good!
