My son thought he was being funny getting this picture real close.

Maybe I am "full of baloney".

 

Cool stuff in no particular order.

I'll sort it out later.

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.
