Let’s see now…I have quite a dearth of CD’s in my “collection” but I’d have to say my favorite at the moment is “Into the Raging River,” a collection of pieces by a composer named Steven Reineke, all played by the Washington Winds. I don’t think too many people have heard of Reineke since he writes music for concert band, but man he’s _good_. ---

For some time now, it’s been Steely Dan’s _Two Against Nature_. Not a bad track in the bunch, and they seem to have benefitted greatly from the long hiatus on this one. The followup (_Everything Must Go_) failed to impress me as much. ---

Currently I’m stuck on Alison Krauss and Union Station’s _New Favorite_. I’ve been listening to it almost daily for several months, and it hasn’t even begun to grow stale. Stunning performances, vocals, songwriting and production. In fact, I would call this one of the best _produced_ albums I’ve ever heard. It’s pristine yet it’s not cold at all - it oozes warmth and musicality. ---

Tilly and the Wall - Wild Like Children Since I am young with no job and little dispensable income, illegal downloading hit me hard. Now I can only download free ones from various sites (legally) but it is severly limited. Tilly and the Wall was the first CD I can actually download for free and legaly, which helps raise the awesome points. I happen to love the fact that a struggling indie band would actually forfit profits off of one of their only incomes to provide fans with the goodness. So cool, in fact, I rave about them in a lot of situations to get them a wider fanbase and hopefully monetary support.

For past several weeks, I’ve been playing Prince’s _Lovesexy_ in my car during my morning and evening commute. I can’t stop listening to it. _Alphabet St._ is the catchiest song of all-time. ---

Coheed & Cambria - In Keeping Secrets of Silent Earth: 3 Thrice - The Artist in the Ambulance Bad Religion - The Empire Strikes Back Strung Out - An American Paradox Are some semi current CD’s that I really enjoy. Others range from about 10 years ago or so… and I still listen to them on occasion ---
