Podcast #1-10. Kronos Quartet: Black Angels
'Black Angels' is one of my desert island discs, and it's an album I can go back to again and again. Usually, though, when I'm in a very dark mood.
-
Podcast #1-9. Wendy and Lisa: Girl Bros.
I never really could get into Prince, but I got into Wendy and Lisa.

Podcast #1-8. The Klezmatics: Jews with Horns

Podcast #1-4. Duran Duran: Medazzaland
The last time Duran Duran really produced something distinct and signature was 'Medazzaland'. It had some of the band's best writing, but none of it was very suitable for radio play.
-
Podcast #1-3. Emmylou Harris: Wrecking Ball
'Wrecking Ball' is one of my desert island discs. It's an album I can go back to again and again and never get tired of it. This album really got me into Emmylou Harris, and as a result, country music stopped being verboten.

Podcast #1-2. Jayne Cortez & the Firespitters: Cheerful & Optimistic
I've been meaning to write about Jayne Cortez & the Firespitters for a long time, but I don't think writing about this album would do as much justice as listening it.
