Cold Blood.

Lydia Pense is a great singer and hasn't lost it, even though there's an over 30-year span between these albums.

Schandmaul, a German folk-rock/folk-metal band, one of my all-time favorites.
In a few days they will be giving a show not far from my place, but I will be on my way to Germany at the same time. Aaaaaarrrrrgh!

The thing to do by Blue Mitchell

Lecrae, Church Clothes.

A lot of my teenage/20-something friends like this guy. I'm not sure I'm in his target audience.

I have not heard this album but I love E.S.T.! I especially dig their Plays Monk album. Great stuff!

Yes, Kevin, I whole-heartedly agree with you; it's such a shame that Svensson had to die so young. For my money, the jazz that EST created is some of the best ever.

Yea it was such a tragedy and a real loss for us music lovers. At least he left quite a few albums behind for us to continue to enjoy.

ELO--Time. The more I listen to this album, the more that I am convinced it is an ELO masterpiece!

The Mahavishnu Band Orchestra

From EST, a great live performance of one of my favorite pieces from Somewhere Else Before. Notice how Svensson at certain times gets the piano to sound like a stringed instrument. He was truly an amazing talent, and I miss him very much: http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=cfBtxDbB5aA

Complete Bitches Brew Sessions

One of those days

Esbjorn Svensson Trio--Strange Place For Snow

This In a Silent Way boxset is another 3 and a half hour journey. I've only made my way through an hour and a half of it and I don't think I'll be finishing the rest tonight I do love these Miles boxsets. I'm taking recommendations on what Miles set I should strap myself in for tomorrow!
