Vince Guaraldi composed many original jazz tunes (and full soundtracks) for Peanuts specials in the 60s. This is an absolutely holiday CLASSIC in my house. Holiday favorites like "O Tannenbaum" coupled with Guaraldi's famous "Linus & Lucy" Peanuts theme will surely make anyone smile and tap their toes.

Idle Moments: Grant Green

First to recommend

Description

A gorgeous album from start to finish -- Green's smooth, rich guitar playing (not to mention the personnel he has backing him) just can't be beat. A classic.

Solid: Grant Green

First to recommend

Description

A more straightforward hard bop record than some of his other work (especially the relaxed 'Idle Moments'), this is a -- no pun intended -- solid record. Although I tend to prefer Joe Henderson and MyCoy Tyner when they're a bit more controlled (and Henderson more melodic), this is still a great record.

This was the album that got them noticed. Who is this funny-named band from Iceland with the sweeping, orchestral compositions??

Ba Ba Ti Ki Di Do: Sigur Rós

First to recommend

Description

This is the music that accompanied Sigur Ros's collaboration with The Merce Cunningham Dance Company at the Brooklyn Academy of Music, which I was lucky enough to have seen in person. Experimental, melodic, organic, avant-garde. Just plain interesting. Although it's better with the modern dance to go with it, still a great standalone recording.

Finally We Are No One: Múm

First to recommend

Description

By far one of the best bands, and records, to come out of Iceland. More straight-up ambient and less orchestral than their countrymen Sigur Ros, this is an excellent CD. (FYI: the band's name is pronounced "moom")
