  1. Stronghold (2008). Julia Wolfe
  2. Virginia Trance (2001). Henry Flynt
  3. I Wish I Was in New Orleans (1990). Tom Waits
  4. Town with No Cheer (1983). Tom Waits

On first listen, the eight double basses of Stronghold stunned me...Henry Flynt is a philosopher and avant-garde musician... Town with No Cheer is the cover version by actress Scarlett Johansson. I honestly like this; on the other hand, her version of I Wish I Was in New Orleans is bizarre...I listened to almost no Thelonious Monk today.
