I can't comment on the exotica-looking albums, but the other picks are winners.

And speaking of the Stooges - has any ever noticed that Smoke in the Water's riff is almostly identical to the riff from Loose? Someone in Deep Purple (Ritchie Blackmore, Roger Glover - shit, it could have been Ian Paice for all I know...) must have been listening to Funhouse at some point. Just saying...

what kind of ride are you looking for? try something by elliott smith like either/or or XO or figure 8. aimee mann's "i'm with stupid" is also really good and, of course, anything by tori amos, especially the early stuff. (that's my kind way of saying i didn't like the last two albums) to venus and back is really good. I think this was already mentioned but Radiohead's OK Computer and Hail to the Thief. On a completely different note, Stevie Wonder's-Song's in the Key of Life and Hotter than July will make you wish it was the 70's. Rufus and Chaka Kahn, Maxwell's first album (it's the only one I have so it's the only one I can reccommend.) the Oh Brother Where Art Thou soundtrack will introduce you to country that doesn't make you want to take a steak knife to someone. the Dixie Chicks Fly is also good for that. Patsy Cline has an amazing voice and this almost R&B ballad like feel to her. And Loretta Lynn has a song called "don't come home a drinken w/ a loven on your mind." you've gotta love a woman who'll write a song like that.

i took this question way too seriously.

the clash is good for 80's punk. so is the violent femmes. if you do get one of their albums, just get add it up. they have this acoustic punk thing going. ani difranco is an amazing story teller, but any album after little plastic castles may not be worth owning. There's also T-Rex for some Glam Rock. Cosmic Dancer is a good ablum for that. also joy division and new order have a punkish feel to them. they do sort of dance/punk (if there is such a thing.) Joni Mitchell, of course, is amazing. Blue and Turbulent Indigo are good starters. that's all i can think of right now.

still taking this question way too seriously.

So....I haven't been shopping for music in months. I went to Tower Records this weekend excitedly because I had some extra scratch and I found absolutely nothing interesting or worthwhile. I did check through the clearance rack and found a killer Acid Jazz Compilation but the house compilation I bought sucked ass. I really didn't hear anything all that great in any of the listening stations.

I'm so bored with what's out there and need to be inspired. Recommend me an album that will grab me by the balls and not let go until it's done with me. It doesn't matter the genre, just as long as I'm guaranteed a ride.




Natalie Nicole's Debut album "Eclectic Soul"
Listen and Purchase at http://www.indy-soul.com and http://www.cdbaby.com/natalienicole

yes, this is a shameless plug smile

you can also peep four FULL LENGTH tracks from the album at http://www.myspace.com/natalienicole
The artist formerly known as Natalie Nicole
NiCo!!
The Indy-Soul
F*ck the Labels. I want you!
Stay safe and happy
http://www.indy-soul.com
http://www.cdbaby.com/natalienicole
http://www.myspace.com/natalienicole

alright that's enough.

If you like Tori Amos and Fiona Apple mixed up with Doris Day, then you'll like Nellie Mckay.

Did AB already hip you to The Faint?

Their albums are really fun. Dance-rock? How should I call them?

Play their "Daft Punk Is Playing At My House" once and you're hooked... I was.

Ermmm nope. It is called DOWNLOAD BRAIN DISORDER and it means you download more than you can properly listen to, LoL
