Tossing up Bob Dylan's Witmark Demos 1962-1964 and Deerhunter's Halcyon Digest. Haven't listened to the latter that much, but it's mellow and nice. It's been reviewed well, which prompted me to pick it up. Let me know what you think.
Dylan's stuff is amazing for the fact that he was 22-24 when he wrote it. Give "A Hard Rains A-Gonna Fall" a listen and don't tell me it's not simply brilliant. The quality is hit or miss. It's a good addition, but you've heard most of this stuff before.
Enjoy.

Eyedea – The Many Faces of Oliver Hart
The Minneapolis hip-hop scene unexpectedly lost an amazing talent on Sunday. Eyedea was the quickest MC I've ever seen in concert. Always interesting, he was a master of both lyrical delivery and wit. Without a doubt one of the best freestyle rappers to ever hold a mic. I've posted his second album, The Many Faces of Oliver Hart, for you to enjoy and remember this Saint Paul native.
