Hank Mobley - Soul Station. Underrated saxophonist at his best and a perfect example of why Blue Note rules the post-bop earth.
A Tribe Called Quest - Low End Theory. "Never half step 'cause I'm not a half steppah / drink a lotta soda so they call me Dr. Peppah." The best of the best of late 80s/early 90s east-coast freestyle/jazz fusion. Smart, funny and Bustah Rhymes acting silly.
The Pogues - Rum, Sodomy & The Lash. "Frank Ryan bought you whiskey in a brothel in Madrid / and you decked some fucking blackshit who was cursing all the Yids." Before Shane McGowan became a sad caricature of himself he was a brilliant lyricist and singer. Band kicks the shit out of traditional Irish music, makes you want to drink, fight and fall down.
Brian Eno/David Byrne - My Life In The Bush Of Ghosts. The grandaddy of electronic music albums. If the groove on "Regiment" doesn't get you then I don't think we should even be having this conversation.
Johnny Cash - At Folsom Prison. The man at his dark and evil best, making a mockery of what passes for "country music" these days.
