CD's worth finding that you may not hear on the radio
| Paul McCartney "Memory Almost Full" | Best McCartney solo album yet. Sonic "nods" to the Beatles and Wings as well as XTC, ELO, and many others |
| Big Phat Band | Any disc. Get it. |
| Hot House Flowers | Into your Heart is one unbelievable album ( thanks again Jim for the heads up) |
| Afro Celt Sound System | I particularily like Volume 2 |
| Al DiMeola | Saw Al debut material from his "Flesh on Flesh" disc at the Sheldon in St. Louis. He was featured at the Guitar Show with warm up Ben Lacy |
| Ben Lacy | Are you kidding me? You can't do that!! Never saw so many guitar players go into a collective depression so fast. |
| Todd Snider | A great songwriter. Can't wait to hear if he comes up with anything for this election year. I got The Devil You Know the day it came out. Wow. |
| Instant Karma

A great collection of great performances of great songs for a great cause. Actually my daughter beat me to this one. Nice to know she has good taste. |
