did anyone catch the brilliant "goodbye babylon" box set issued by
"dust-to-digital"? six discs of sacred americana-style folk and gospel
from the likes of blind lemon jefferson, the carter family, washington
phillips (who's "lift him up that's all" is like a seance of sound) -
the last disc is comprised of deep-fried southern sermons ... ahhhh.

I'm not much into pop stuff anymore, so my
recommendations are a bit
different:
as i half expected, dave's recommendations superpose in about 85% with
mine...
just about anything by Miles Davis, Sonny
Rollins, Jelly Roll
Morton, Duke Ellington, Charles Mingus, Thelonius Monk, Charlie Parker...
ditto. and i would add at least lester young, coleman hawkins, count basie
and eric dolphy.
Pony Blues, Down The Dirt Road, and High Water
Everywhere, by
Charlie Patton
(real blues)
ditto. and may i also suggest son house? imo the greatest, his dead letter
blues is impressive.
