    I am always on the lookout for new stuff to listen to so can anyone recommend any CD’s that fulfill the following criteria:

    1/ It must be available on CD – don’t do downloads
    2/ It must be reasonably obscure.
    3/ Genre is not important but it must be a good listen
    4/ It must be produced and recorded to the very highest standards

    I’ll kick things off with the following recommendations

    Gonjasufi – A Sufi and a Killer
    Taj Mahal & Toumani Diabate – Kulanjan
    Dr Octagon – Dr Octagonolygist
    John Downland – In Darkness Let Me Dwell
    Alison Krauss and the Union Station – Lonely Runs Both Ways
    Seaman Dan – Steady Steady
    Harlem in Vogue – The Poetry and Jazz of Langston Hughes

    Excellent – great stuff. Keep ’em coming.

    Have ordered ‘Clogs – Lantern’ just because its the first one that I looked up on Amazon.

    I should also add the first Moloko album to the list – Do You Like My Tight Sweater. Utterly different to the stuff that made the charts they did later on.

    Not sure if it has had a UK release yet, but Asaf Avidan’s album is a blinder.

    …and I don’t usually like that sort of thing.

    Edit: Yes it has.
