Completely 100% unbiased recommendation
It Stinks!

Maggie Council, a Tampa Bay singer/songwriter, has a new CD out. If you're into blues or progressive folk, it's well worth the purchase (and if you like to try before you buy, you can listen to long clips of all the songs online - I especially recommend "Palm Trees in My Backyard", one of my favorites on the disc). The album is also available as a downloadable zip archive containing MP3s of all the songs, if you're into instant gratification and would just rip them to your iPod anyway.

Apart from being a phenomenal songwriter and versatile musician, Maggie's also a friend. The first time I met her, she took me to a place which totally creeped me out - but that's a story for another time. She was a great friend to the Calais Consort, too, getting us our radio gig which I still think was our finest playing (apart from the comedic farce that was our outro).
