If you could recommend one obscure CD

Time Out, the Dave Brubeck Quartet... all time classic jazz recording from 1959. Joe Morello's drumming is incredible. Paul Desmond's sax is silky smooth and driving. Brubeck wanders in and out of classic and improv modes and Eugene Wright holds it all together with his subtle, always dead on bass. You won't hear a more inventive jazz album anywhere and yet it's all so very accessible. If I'm ever marooned on an island it's the one album out of all the music I love, from classic to rock to country, that I'd have to have.

Anthony Phillips - "The Geese and the Ghost"
Mahavishnu Orchestra - "Between Nothingness and Eternity"
Shawn Phillips - "Faces"
Steve Unruh - "Song to the Sky"
Michael Hedges - "Aerial Boundaries"

Only Steve Unruh is legitimatley "obscure" as in "almost completely unknown" out of this group, but these are all "somewhat hidden" gems at the least and to most of the public would be "obscure".

Saw Michael Hedges at Mersham with Darel Anger and Mike Marshall. Good show. He died a few years ago in a car wreck I think.
