I am digging Death Cab For Cutie's Photo Album. Information Travels Faster is awesome. I believe it's one of their best and underrated albums.

I've listened to it multiple times with headphones and I think that's really the best way to listen to this album. Just put on some headphones, relax, and just try to focus on the musical arrangements. There's a lot of promise on display, although I will concede I do also miss the gimmick because it had a lot of energy to it. This was my jazz, not something trying to emulate my parents or grandparents jazz. That kind of stung at first, but then I just kind of let it go and appreciate the music for what it was, and eagerly anticipate their next release to see which way they'll go.

Super Fly (Original Soundtrack) - Curtis Mayfield (1972)

Possibly my all-time favorite soundtrack album and one that stands on its own, apart from the film, as a concept album. A masterpiece of soul/funk from the late, great Curtis Mayfield, sounding just as relevant today as it did in 1972. A timeless classic!

Having just seen the 2014 broadway production starring Neil Patrick Harris, I can't put this down. Angry Inch is the most badass track I've heard in a long time. Yisssssssssssss.

I bought that album on a whim 15 years ago and loved it. Then a few years later I saw the play and loved that. Then several years later I saw the movie and loved that. I wish there were other musicals out there that were so good. I mean a musical… that actually has great music, what a novel concept!
