What Would You Buy?

My taste in music ranges from Madonna to Johnny Cash, from Tom Russell to the Pet Shop Boys. I like classical, jazz, rock, folk, pop, country and dance. Showtunes, too. The last album I bought is The Who's first new CD in 24 years, Endless Wire, which includes a mini-opera called Wire & Glass. And it's good, all of it.

I only mention this because I still have a $25 I-tunes gift certificate from Christmas, and I need YOUR help.

What would you buy?

Please note that I already own the entire Sing-A-Long with Mitch Miller catalog, a fact that is not lost on my next-door neighbors, who for some reason keep complaining about me to the police.

Your music library seems to be lacking in Traditional Irish Music. May I recommend something from Danu or Altan, that I don't have yet?

bobby, i love the Irish people, and especially me grand-ma-ma, but I'm not so fond of Irish music or musicians, except for Bono.

... Call me embittered, but you know, I never quite forgave Sinead O'Connor for ripping up that picture of the Pope.

I think Jann Arden's Jann Arden CD (an import if you try to buy it from Amazon) is a good album. As is Heather Small Close To A Miracle (also an import only on amazon)

"Wild, Cool, & Swingin" by Mrs. Miller (http://phobos.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewAlbum?id=70903282&s=143441) is the perfect way to blow an iTunes gift card since you want to get any music you'll really like on cd. Or vinyl.
