    Hey Freddy,

    This list should keep you busy for a while. I know the music below well (except for Alison Krauss, just started to listen to her and love it, thanks to SNOW) and can assure a good listen on your Maggies. Enjoy!

    Females:

    Cassandra Wilson - "My One and Only Love" and others from: "Blue Skies"

    Cassandra Wilson and Diana Krall - "Days of Wine and Roses" (from the Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil" Soundtrack

    Anything by Sara K.

    Anything by Alison Krauss.

    Lila Downs - "La Malague

    N/P I love how ST/Infectious combine a few style's of music and assault our ear's with a fast, hard, funky original sound :)

    Trullio's bass is PHENOMINAL! Personally i think he is wasting his time playing with metallica right now. I like metallica just not 99% of their stuff since enter sandman :o

    Do you happen to know of anywhere that carries some of ST/Infectious grooves stuff on vinyl?

    It's Michael Hutchence from INXS (now deceased) and a guy named "Ollie" Olsen. Way good.

    Amy Grant - Behind The Eyes

    419BPSP4N6L._SL500_AA240_.jpg

    An overlooked album (IMO) that has become one of my favorites over the years. Not the Contemporary Christian that started her career, or the Pop that she later attempted...but something totally different that I really like. The writing of the songs was excellent. Very somber, introspective, thought provoking body of work as it was during the time she was having problems with her marriage with her husband Gary Chapman (they divorced soon after it was released).
