Thread Name: Albums We Keep Coming Back To
Subject: RE: Albums We Keep Coming Back To
Paul Simon's "Graceland," mostly the Ladysmith Black Mambazo cuts. Countless blues albums, esp. Albert Collins and MJH. Shaker hymns. Podcasts from Sinner's Crossroads. Jackson Browne, "Running on Empty." YoYo Ma's "Obrigado Brazil." Rachmaninoff "Vespers." Seamus Kennedy "Favourite Selections." Stan Rogers. A Van Ronk one, "King of...[Whatsis-whazzit]"? (We'd actually missed Van Ronk till Olddude sent him along one day!!!) Robert Sims spirituals. Traveling Wilberrys. Some of the U2 stuff and Blues Travelers stuff. Barenaked Ladies. Nek. Eric Bibb.... Hopeful Gospel Quartet.... Doc Watson....

Must say the recent Beatles Anthology on TV might provoke some purchasing of the older stuff. Such fun, when they were boys. Before they got their man-bones. Like watching Sidney Crosby. Good tunes, too.

Aquatic workouts eat a LOT of music. Other stuff is good car music, but it is archived after it's no longer new. All the above though come back each year in the aquatics season's 9-month rotation.
