Not able to post Album art at this stage due to lack of activilty as I'm a "Newbie".
The album I'm putting forward here is a Compilation CD from 2003 called "Boudoir Beats". Its in a Jazz/Chillout Vein. Picked it up second hand and of the 30 something tracks on double CD I'd only heard of a handful of the artists previously. These are David Holmes, Grooove Armada, Royksopp, Loose Ends, John Barry, Paul Hardcastle & Primal Scream. I'll often punt blindly for an album from the second hand stuff available in Charity Shops, Music Stalls etc and this one turned out to be a real good find for me. I like this kind of discovery as I'll find a song/artist that is new ground for me and I then go on to explore more of their work. Both Cd's on in this collection include some great new tunes for me. CD1 Royksopp - Remind Me is a tune (my fave of the collection) I now love but its probably the only one in my collection that is in this genre. I'd go as far as describing it as "Camp as a row of Tents". Its Ace! Tracks 14,15,16... all in a row are amazing Funky/Deep Bassy tunes that have been layed on the album in perfet order. All three have great basslines and the first two especially for me are sexy tunes. Track 14 - Bushy feat. I K Dell Track 15 - Max Sedgley - Slowly Track 16 - Loose Ends - Feel the Vibe CD2 I've tended to listen to CD 1 most, but from CD 2 I can recommend the following:- Primal Scream - Star Custom Blue - So Low Tiefschwarz - Never |

Nice, nice. Honestly I picked this up cause I was looking for some of Yo-Yo Ma's cello stuff, but liked the samples when I checked them out. I don't know Mr. Ax or the other guy, but I mean, I like what I hear. He definitely kicks some ass on here. Way better than me, that's for sure. I love the piano, so I might look for more from him.

Wilco - Yankee Foxtrot Hotel I'm a little confused with this album to be honest... it's a lot slower than I normally like and something in Jeff Tweedy's voice bugs me... and yet like an abused spouse I keep coming back to it. |

Pantera - Vulgar Display of Power
A high school classic! 'Walk' is the only song that bugs me when I play this. Decent enough but kind of weak and commercial. Probably due to it being overplayed. Here are some better ones: I can't express how much I loved 'Hollow' back then, and still do. It so fucking deep. It just really affected me back then and hearing it really brings me back to those days. Amazing song.
