Wow.  A lot of great suggestions.  Isn't talking about music so much 
more relaxing and enjoyable than arguing about politics and religion?  
Personally, I like to listen to music while arguing.  :)

Anyway, without a doubt, beyond any ability to argue, as if divined by 
some big stick in the sky, the greatest musical release of all time 
(including the future) is the 2002 release by Cody ChesnuTT -- "The 
Headphone Masterpiece" Volumes I & II.  I was just recently turned onto 
this record and I can't believe I've wasted the past 2 years listening 
to anything else.

Be forewarned, this is in NO way children's music.  Do not expect 
political correctness or radio tripe.  This is the real dilly, yo.  And 
there are 2 copies at both CD Alley (Franklin St.) and Best Buy (New 
Hope Commons).
