I NEED NEW MUSIC!

Rec me a band or bands, someone you love. What's the one album of theirs that I *must* have?

Give me 1-5 albums (any genre) that *everyone* should have in their collection.

1. Sharon Jones & the Dap Kings: 100 Days, 100 Nights
It's a revival of the soul stylings of the 60s & early 70s.


Yes! Thank you! The first time I head Amy Winehouse I went a-Googling for more Motown revivalish stuff, and I'm pretty sure 100 Days, 100 Nights is an album I saw mentioned in a review, then promptly forgot to bookmark. Oy! Thank you! Other than the lyrics, Amy Winehouse's stuff is so spot on (phrasing, back-up vocals, instrumentation) that it makes me think I've gone back in time. :-) Thank you for that kick in the memory! 100 Days, definitely going on my list.

Downtempo/lounge is fine -- that's what I'm looking for, things that I like hearing, but don't have in my collection. I'm really digging retro stuff for work, so that would be perfect. I'll add both recs to my list.

Robin Thicke! Yes! I've got one song I loaded up from a complilation disk and you're right, he has a *very* surprising - in a good way - voice. He's been on my 'buy' list for a while now.

Thank you!
