7. Smokers Delight by Nightmares on Wax

The list author says:
	"Chilled stuff from NoW... this is their first album and, in my opinion, superior to its sucessors, 'Carboot Soul' etc, although it doesn't have 'Les Nuits'. Still, I think it's well worth it."

11. Nina Simone - Gold by Nina Simone

The list author says:
	"A collection of Nina's best-known tracks. I just can't get enough! Includes two remixes, one's insipid, but 'See-Line Woman' is worth a listen."

13. The Moon and Antarctica by Modest Mouse

The list author says:
	"I was captivated by Modest Mouse's unique sound... it's a bit trippy, a bit rocky, possibly even a bit folky. I love all of the songs on this album."

14. Like I Said by Ani DiFranco

The list author says:
	"I had real difficultly deciding on one Ani album; she doesn't have a 'Best Of... 'Like I Said' is a compilation of tracks off her first two albums. Rebellious folk... with serious guitar skills."
