My all time favorite CD. This is one CD I bought as a freshman that never got old. Title track is great.
Continuum: Music by John Mayer (Guitar/Vocal)Continuum: Music by John Mayer (Guitar/Vocal) by John Mayer
Buy new: $15.61 / Used from: $16.03
Talking about an evolution. John has developed his musical talent from Room For Squares to Continuum. This is just great. He has been working with a pool of talent in Pino Palladino and Howie Day to name a few. It has paid off.

Too many people don't know about this band. Great grunge.
On and OnOn and On by Jack Johnson
Buy new: $7.99 / Used from: $6.95
I really like this CD by Jack. You might also want to try his new CD "Sleep Through The Static" I bought STTS and it is pretty good. This CD, On and On is great to sit on the beach or under a tree and just chill to. If I was stranded on an island....you know the rest.

Great tracks "Sorry, So Sorry" and "She Says"
Special CompanySpecial Company by Josh Kelley

The Best of Chet Baker SingsThe Best of Chet Baker Sings by Chet Baker
Buy new: $9.97 / Used from: $4.50
If he was doing this stuff today. Wow. If you slide this CD in the mix while friends are over...they will think that it is current and wonder who the new singer is. Little do they know these recordings are from 1956.
August and Everything AfterAugust and Everything After by Counting Crows
Buy new: $9.97 / Used from: $0.92
Mr. Jones is great. This is one band that defines college life as it truly is. Lyric..."when everybody loves you...well sometimes that's about as fu!@ked up as you could be." and "we all wanna be big, big stars...yeah, we all got different reasons for that"

There are lots of Trio's out there. Not often do all three members have superior talent and blend well.

This is great for late at night with a group of friends sipping margaritas on the back porch. The song "Closer" is one of my favorites. The whole CD is great. Lyrics are well thought.
A Fever You Can't Sweat OutA Fever You Can't Sweat Out by Panic! At The Disco

Last track of Disc 2 "That was a crazy game of poker" is an original. Great college band.
Boys for PeleBoys for Pele by Tori Amos
Buy new: $10.99 / Used from: $0.01
"Caught a Light Sneeze" is a good track, but the lyrics through out this CD really make you think. She is a classically trained pianist and it comes through. I think she went somewhere like Juliard.
Back to BlackBack to Black by Amy Winehouse
Buy new: $12.99 / Used from: $5.00
She's a keeper. Terrifically original voice.

I grew listening to this CD. It was my first real exposure to international music and it was a hell of a great place to start.
Blind MelonBlind Melon by Blind Melon
Buy new: $10.99 / Used from: $0.01
Great band. Partied with them, but do you wanna talk about falling apart and crashing. Seems everyone must have partied with them. Needless to say they could have been great.

Ben Folds LiveBen Folds Live by Ben Folds
Buy new: $10.99 / Used from: $4.02
Seen him in concert live with John Mayer. Ben is an ultra-talented individual with skills on the piano, vocally, song writing and entertaining a large crowd. "Brick" is great, but one of many.
