Which album(s)?

Well... Ladies and Gentlemen We're Floating In Space. Any other I should look into?

To me that is their undisputed masterpiece. But it's the only album I've spent a lot of time with. I liked Lazer Guided Melodies and Let It Come Down just fine, as far as I can recall. And then the two most recent albums are OK. But I've only listened to each maybe twice.

Keith clearly knows a lot more about J and his discography, especially the Spacemen 3 stuff. Which is very much worth a listen.

But Ladies and Gentlemen..., that is a remarkable album. I saw him perform it in its entirety with a band and like full gospel choir a few years ago. Pretty fuck*ng awesome. I saw him recently and it was good, but not nearly as good as the Ladies and Gentlemen... show.

You guys know anything about various musics of Brazil? There is a great local radio show that has gotten me interested. All I know is Caetano Veloso. All I want is polyrhythms. Now I realize they put their playlists online, but I always like hearing suggestions.

Hello there.

Ahm, ok, no, actually I don't know as much about Brazilian music as most of my friends, but I suppose I can give you some names.

Tom Zé: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U74Qo9PyKQ8

Secos e Molhados: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LrxMlfCP_pw

Nação Zumbi: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kbmUN1x7A7o

Chico Science: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nu3mcjjx9O0

If you want to fall in love, there's always Céu: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w1NHsMb2OwM

This is a medley put up by an American DJ (I think he is American, can't really look into it right now). If you dig around this link you prolly can find the individual Brazilian artists that appear in the medley. Anyway I'm putting this here because the samples are all killers (go after the other medleys, they're also awesome): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o-MiBMSHDn8

Baden Powell and Vinicius de Moraes: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=npBAS4realQ

I'm a think of more stuff to put up here later.

Hey I've got that one. I listened to it and it kinda bored me to death.

If you haven't, you should check out Levon Helm's last two albums.  Great stuff!

Dogggggg.

you better STOP (stop) like 60 seconds in gets me every time. J Dilla is the best. I want to find infinite albums where people create textures like this out of old soul and funk and jazz songs.

DJ Signify is close.

Man, I was so into donuts a few months ago, so good.  Never listened to anything else by him, should I?
