Had a browse back through this thread to a year ago.

It's covered a lot of sonic territory.

Thanks to everyone for posting

Amen.

Nina Simone - The Best Of Nina Simone

Have I ever mentioned that Nina Simone is the apex of American culture? She is.

When I was starving in NYC in the late ‘90s, playing $50 gigs every night, this was one of the records that kept me alive.

Ella Fitzgerald - Ella wishes you a Swingin' Christmas

[Soggy Donkey]

Saw Yo La Tengo's Hanukkah show on Monday with Lucinda Williams, which was just beautiful. But heard that Sir Richard Bishop played with them last night... jeez, that's a pairing I'd like to've seen. So anyhow, listening to SRB right now, and just getting lost in it.
