If you're old and decrepit like me, you probably remember guitarist Steve Khan from three late-70s fusion albums, most notably The Blue Man.  This is not anything like that.  A great album of Latin-flavored mainstream guitar jazz.  Includes a killer take on the old Monk tune "Bye-Ya" and a smokin' version of Ornette Coleman's "Blues Connotation."

Jack White - Blunderbuss



His first solo outing, but this is more of the same from Jack White. Trademark hooks throughout, with the second half more immediately appealing on initial listen.

Maybe it's not ultra-new, but it has some really sweet tunes. Soft Indie Rock w/ electronic elements. Early "The Killers" + "The Faint" and the overdrive turned down a few notches. The SQ isn't the best, but the songs are too good not to be listened to.

Been kind off jizzing to this album lately, bought the first print but received it kind of late.

Also, I just noticed because of the album's bonus items, that this existed, http://ototoy.jp/feature/index.php/dsd_shop or else I might not buy the SACD at all(or maybe I would, hey it is "limited edition"). Her website did not mention anything about it when I looked at her discography at the time I purchased it :(

I fucking love this album. One of my favorites last year.

Still can't stop listening to "Shoes for Running."
