Jason Isbell & The 400 Unit - Jason Isbell & The 400 Unit
Fabulous solo release for ex-Drive-by-Trucker.
I always have half an ear out for quality recordings (by which I mean how well recorded they are), and this is a cracker. Sounds like the band were on fire, and this is an excellent set of songs.
Recommended (if you like this sort of thing)...

Not a big ELO fan, but I nearly always enjoy their stuff when I play it...

Yes - Yesshows
Live Yes disc from the post-Going For The One tour. Used to be a big fan of this band in my youth. Less so now, but I'll always re-visit their albums.

This is apparently a concept album based around an ancient Oirish myth.
Good album.

slow burn by atreyu!
an excellent building song that starts with awesome piano and then builds to screaming lyrics!

teeth as big as piano keys by chiodos
they are a strange band- their titles make absolutely no sense and have no correlation to the music or lyrics (usually).

Murdering Oscar (And Other Love Songs)
Solo effort from another Drive By Truckers mainstay.
This is closer to DBT than Isbell's album, but both are very good...
