avalanche

for some reason, right now there is SO much good music that is out (or coming out (or has been out for a long time but i'm just now finally listening to)).

i am having a hard time deciding what to listen to first.

here are some of the albums that i'm talking about:

*cat power - "the greatest" - i am in love with this woman again.
*the magic numbers - "the magic numbers" - SO so so SO SO so great. don't believe me? then click here to watch them play on Morning Becomes Eclectic.
*the fiery furnaces - "rehearsing my choir" - yes, i actually do like this album. a lot. though i wish i would have thought of this idea first.
*babyshambles - "down in albion" - really good (but i still miss the libertines). the whole pete doherty drama reminds me so much of john frusciante's nearly-thorough downward spiral of a few years back.
*clap your hands say yeah - i know, i know. i am the last person to finally listen to this album, but i really hated it when it first came out. hey, a fellow can change his mind, no?
*phil spector - "a christmas gift for you from phil spector" - i have heard most of these songs before, but here they are in one place. so badass. and yes, i am listening to christmas music already.
*the rolling stones - "their satanic majesties request" - i have been forgetting to get this damn album for years now.
*the replacements - "tim" - same goes here. hooray for minneapolis!
*the john peel box thingy - there is so much great stuff here that i can't even stand it.

what else? any other suggestions?
