Re: (TV) CDs on the player
Mingus Mingus Mingus Mingus Mingus (Yup, that's the title) - Charles Mingus
- very Beat-sounding large-ensemble jazz.  I challenge anyone to 
evict "II B.S." from their head once they've heard it.
The Complete Riverside Recordings of Thelonious Monk - exquisite. 
Today, it's the sessions for _Himself_.
The Cover Doesn't Matter -  Sure, I liked it when I first heard it, 
but it's progressively grabbed me from there.  I always have to play 
it twice.
The Lullaby Baxter Trio - surreal lyrics over gentle Tom-Waits-ian 
carnival music. (Most of the band--not a trio--was in the band for 
_Night on Earth_)
Unwound -- Tim Berne's Bloodcount.  Frenetic schizy avant-jazz 
supergroup.  The drummer, Jim Black, is astonishing.
Lifestyle - Silkworm.  Great rock songcraft from this 1/3 Seattle 2/3 
Chicago band.  Mighty, sarcastic, emotionally moving, and just 
released last year.  Might well be their best yet.
