Want Two - Rufus Wainwright
I'm old enough to remember his dad, but his dad was never this brlliant
Vehicles and Animals - Athlete
It's pop music, but so, so much more. And every song outstanding
Half These Songs Are About You - Nizlopi
Isn't it great that people can still invent music like this, so unlike anything else out there at the moment. Featured recently on a trailer for McLeod's Daughters - because of its typical evocation of remote outbacks full of beautiful people?
Shaman - Santana
Maybe the most emotional guitarist ever, put into a context of real songs. Although probably the producer should have told him to shut the f@#! up at certain points, it's still a brilliant modern combination.

Going Somewhere - Colin Hay
Not many people can carry off an album of just (more or less) acoustic guitar plus voice. It's called talent. In case you don't know, Colin Hay was the lead singer with Men At Work, of Land Down Under fame.
Room for Squares - John Mayer
I'm working backwards through John Mayer's work and it keeps getting better. Which is good for me but worrying for him.
Was that 5?
