I'll have to start since asking the question:
The Arctic Monkeys - only heard radio stuff and finally got Favourite Worst Nightmare from the library and it's great, I'm going to buy it.
The Decemberists - The Crane Wife and their earlier stuff
Black Keys (their Magic Potiion of bluesy '60s-ish tunes is good).

Also, on the jazz front, Charlie Haden and Stefano Battaglia have been in my CD player for some time. Good stuff.

Hurts like a bastid...

A local station here in Little Rock, Magic 105FM, is going off the air and the main guy there is moving to a new station. He's basically been given carte blanche to do what he wants so he's been playing nothing but The Beatles (and various later songs by the four after they went solo) for days now. I haven't changed the station since he started, so that's what I've been listening to. Haven't even launched iTunes in days.

I'm escaping the midwest winter at the Gulf coast in Alabama. Great radio station WZEW they have a stream that loads in iTunes.

Delta blues, album rock, great station.

Ray Benson was on Letterman as a guest with the band....So I am listening to "Asleep At The Wheel".

They have a new CD out...Reinventing the Wheel. I wonder if it is good.

I used to hang out at this casual little, old, shotgun Bar, called "Antlers", in downtown Lafayette, LA. They had about 12 seats at the bar, a pool table and a 15 ' x 15' dance floor.

They would write the name of the band on a Chalkboard by the bar. I remember being quite tipsy, and turning to my friend and saying "What the hell is the name of this band?".

Boy were we in for a great surprise.

Cheikh Lô, CD title: Né La Thiass

Right now, Jim Kweskin "Side By Side" cd.

I'm steadily working through my vinyl putting it onto the computer so I can listen on my iPod. Just finished listening to Spirit - Twelve Dreams of Dr. Sardonicus and before that it was Nick Drake - Five Leaves Left.

iTunes Radio Station: Electronic - Philosomatika. It's just upbeat background noise.

Jeff

Recently (and not necessarily new):

Suede - Suede (forced to call themselves the London Suede in the US)
Fountains of Wayne - various albums
Jane's Addiction - Greatest Hits
Liz Phair - various albums
Mazzy Star - So Tonight that I Might See
Pulp - This is Hardcore
The Pursuit of Happiness - Best of

Just picked up a John Coltrane DVD from Costco in the "Jazz Icons" series...haven't had a chance to watch it yet, but am looking forward to that.

I've been walking to work, which gives me about half an hour to listen each way. Despite the street noise, having the iPod along really adds to the whole walk experience.

Most recent walking music:

The Waterboys, a playlist pulled from 3 or 4 CDs
Cesaria Evora, another compilation from several CDs; mostly Cabo Verde.
Some Bobby Bland tracks bought from iTMS

Unfortunately, this part of NYC is too noisy for classical.

One of our local radio stations (KINK FM, Portland) puts out a compilation CD every September of live numbers that were performed in their studios. I have been trying to collect them all and now have 8 out of 10 of them. They are playing in a random playlist on my computer right now. All kinds of good stuff.
