King Tubby - 100% Of Dub (2003)



I sometimes think my headphones are weak in the bass; this album disproves it. It's just most of my music doesn't have much bass.

William Patrick Corgan - Ogilala (2017)



Edit: I find this kind of boring (lots of acoustic guitar and piano), but @axolotl might find it of interest.

Kareem Roustom & El-zafeer Ensemble ~ Almitra's Question (2004)



You could do tons worse than listening to this. Several tons, in fact.

It has a Trane number, and a Oliver Messiaen number. Kareem Roustom plays a righteous guitar.

Might put one in mind of Oregon (the group, not the state) and Ralph Towner.

Yuval Ron ~ Oud Prayers on the Road to St. Jacques (2008)



Maybe I'm an odd oud oaf, but I digress.

This is amazing. I fancy myself a bit of a world music aficionado, and this could easily be in my top three of all-time.

Take an oud, go into a chapel, and please... have somebody else play.

By the way, I bought the two ceedees I have described above from cdbaby.com, for $5 apiece, via their three-for-$5-each sale. [All you have to do is pick one more. I'd go so far as to bet you could do that without my help.]

Julia Dream - Anxiety World (2016)



This Japanese psych rock is really quite good and it's on Spotify.

Yes, despite that, it's a good record.

Even though I'm listening to a Diament remaster, I can tell Zep subscribed to the Rolling Stones' school of sound production.

Land Observations ~ Roman Roads IV - XI (2012)



More hypnotic than cinematic.
