We just bought 3 Burns Sisters cds- _Traditions, Out Of The Blue,_ and _In This World_. We saw them at our local coffee house recently. We went because their guitarist is an old friend of my husband’s, but we liked their music so much we ordered some online the next day. ---

_The Newest Sound Around,_ a 1961 album with Jeanne Lee singing and Ran Blake on the piano. A really wild dead-end in modern jazz. Lee has this smoky, dark, cryptic-sounding voice, and Blake plays weird harmonics and block chords. I’ve never heard anything quite like it. Great music for 4 AM. I heard about it two months ago…Jeanne Lee died (she was about sixty, I guess) and she had a nice little obit in the NY Times. They mentioned this record as her best work, so I decided to give it a listen. Ordered it on Amazon; took 'em six weeks to find it. ---

_Cheap Trick_ ('97) by **Cheap Trick** It was this summer. I found it on sale so I finally picked it up. Now I’m kicking myself for waiting so long. I love it! The last one bought for me was _Brand New Day_ by **Sting**. ---

_The Edge of Christmas_ by various artists, that includes Fairytale of New York by the Pogues, Christmas Wrapping by the Waitresses, and the Bowie & Bing duet of Little Drummer Boy. I ordered it from CDNow over Thanksgiving weekend, and it **still hasn’t arrived**. But I did buy it. ---

_ **Return to Saturn** _ by No Doubt. BareNaked Ladies’ _ **Maroon** _is next on my lis–as soon as it hits BMG. (What can I say, I’m cheap.) ---

Ordered some Christmas CDs from Amazon. With the luck I’ve been having ordering from abroad lately, they should make it by _next_ Christmas. Probably. Last CD I bought in a store was Minor Earth, Major Sky - a-ha. (Okay, so some of you might have seen that coming.) ---

U2 - All That You Can’t Leave Behind… love it. And haven’t ever owned any of their other albums. Also got Beatles 1 at the same time, but that was just for the hell of it. ---

> [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by Proudest Monkey \* > \*\*Bela Fleck and the Flecktones–_Greatest Hits of the 20th Century_ \*\* Oooh, small world. A colleague just introduced me to Bela Fleck’s music a couple of days ago. Amazing technique. Anyway, my latest buy was “Rubber Soul” by the Beatles. I’ve been meaning to get some Beatles for some time, and I just read _Norweigan Wood_ by Murakami, and Beatles music figured big in the novel. As I suspected, there were a lot of songs on the album I “knew” but didn’t recognize by name. ---
