    How come no one ever told me about My Morning Jacket?



    Nice.

    Unless you happen to live in Northern Europe or possibly Japan, you could say that the only trendy CDs I have (remotely trendy) are from Les Savy Fav and The Mars Volta. But I'm not listening to them. No. I'm listening to organ music (not a body part joke).

    I think you're right -- it didn't sound like a whole lot at first, but it seems to keep getting better and better.

    I agree. He's no Mikey Hedges (that's what mother in law called him; she was a student of Hedges's father), but he's got some chops.

    Fleet Foxes still gets my vote for best release of the year.

    Elbow's Seldom Seen Kid hits a close second.



    Anyone comment on Fleet Foxes? Am I alone in this?

    Yes.



    But TV on the Radio's "Dear Science" possibly best record of the year.

    Just gave it a listen and wasn't overwhelmed, even within that genre...

    Right now I'm immersing myself in Jason Mraz... I'll see him live in HK on March 2nd!



    I love his style, and I've never taken the opportunity to really get into his music. I love these concert opportunities to familiarize myself with someone new.

    All I have been listening to online. Very mellow and immersible music.



    Besides that, it's been live concerts I've found online. A Lou Reed show from circa 1974 or certain groups from the Seventies and Eighties (Patti Smith, Television, Echo & the Bunnymen). I guess it's just nostalgia lately. Finding good new music can be a chore sometimes...\



    Some interesting recommendations here that I may check out though.

    Fleet Foxes - Mykonos



    I still think Fleet Foxes was the absolute best album of 2008, even beating Seldom Seen Kid.



    Everyone, please give it a listen. I want this band to be around a while.
