alright, i haven't bought an album in a while but some favs are:

1. yo la tengo - and then nothing turned itself inside out
2. belle and sebastian - boy with the arab strap
3. godspeed you black emporer - lift your skinny fists like antentae to heaven
4. tom waits - mule variations
5. tom waits - nighthawks at the diner
6. jimmy smith - the sermon
7. the hidden cameras - (can't remember the name of the album)
8. modest mouse - the lonesome crowded west
9. k-os - exit
10. anything with miles davis, especially when he was in his drug-induced experimental phase.
