• The Best of Big Band - BBC Big Band Orchestra
• Live from Paris - U2

I admit I mostly bought this for the live version of "Exit". I think was one of the high points of the movie Rattle & Hum and it made me really sad that it wasn't included on the CD.

• Love, War and the Ghost of Whitey Ford - Everlast
• Strange Conversation - Kris Delmhorst

I just can't tell you how incredible this album is. Besides the fact that she's taken these poems and made some really great songs, I also love the fact that she's kind of taken the whole high art vs. low art idea and thrown it out the window.

• Horses Swimming - Kris Delmhorst
• Ghost Repeater - Jeffrey Foucault
• Stripping Cane - Jeffrey Foucault
• A Dark Cabaret - Various Artists

Why did no one tell me about Jill Tracy before? She's like the musical equivalent of Charles Addams!

• The Cars - The Cars
• Who Killed Amanda Palmer? - Amanda Palmer

I LOVE THIS ALBUM SO MUCH!!! AMANDA PALMER IS A GODDESS! (gee, I think I've found my latest musical crush)

• 21st Century Breakdown - Green Day
• Songs of Mass Destruction - Annie Lennox
• The E.N.D. - Black-Eyed Peas
• East of Edsen - Captain Tractor
• Made of Bricks - Kate Nash
