SONIC OBSESSIONS
Children Running Through
by Patty Griffin
An emotional and musical adventure, the third album from crossover artist Griffin unifies clarity of vision and seamlessness of execution, making this album the one her fans had been waiting for.
Sleep Through the Static
by Jack Johnson
For his fifth album, singer/songwriter Johnson moves into darker territory but maintains his mellow mood and overall aesthetic with laid-back songs that roll so easily they glide into the background.
In Rainbows
by Radiohead
Mixing disparate elements—from the unsettling to the romantic—makes this album Radiohead's most stimulating synthesis of accessible songs and abstract sounds. Its initial launch in digital format made history as the first pick-your-price download.

ESSENTIAL OLDIES
Thelonious Monk Quartet with John Coltrane - At Carnegie Hall
by Thelonious Monk and John Coltrane
This hard-swinging performance—one of the truly great finds in jazz lore—was recorded on November 29, 1957 at Carnegie Hall. Monk, Coltrane, drummer Shadow Wilson and bassist Ahmed Abdul-Malik are at the peak of their powers.
Blue
by Joni Mitchell
Sad, spare, and beautiful, this is the quintessential confessional singer/songwriter album from Mitchell. Its songs are raw nerves, tales of love and loss, and etched with stunning complexity.
Beggars Banquet
by The Rolling Stones
The Stones forsook psychedelic experimentation to return to their roots on this celebrated album, colored with a strong acoustic Delta blues flavor. It was immediately acclaimed as one of their landmark achievements.
