A while back a friend of mine, who's been working overseas for a few years, asked me to put together a list of essential albums from 1999 on. The reason he asked me was because I turned him on to Bedouin Soundclash. So keeping that in mind, here are my recommendations for some albums every person should probably listen to if they have been out of the rock n roll loop for the last decade or so. Like my top ten of 2007, I've included videos to show you samples of what you'll get with each release.
Enjoy....
