Most of the new Josh Rouse album. It's a grower.

But "It Looks Like Love" is my most definite favorite.

This morning "Ripple" (Grateful Dead) came on in the car.
I'm not a big Deadhead or anything, but I was reminded what a beautiful song it is. Some of their stuff is ace.

The only song I can't get enough of right now is Vaccination Scar by The Tragically Hip. Most of the new albums I've only heard once so it's hard to pick a fave, maybe The Streets' Pranging Out. If we count groups of songs I can't get enough of, then Deadstring Brothers and now that it's getting pleasant out, I could spin Lowest of the Low's Shakespeare My Butt daily and not get sick of it.
