As I get ready to recap 2008 (which starts on Monday), I figured I might as well look back 2 years and re-examine my Top 10 albums of 2006.

I think I want to get back into taking pictures. My friend Tim just got a new digital slr for his wife. How rad. The trees below were taken just yesterday at a nameless park in Placentia , My home town 2.0 for the past couple years. I've always liked biking passed those trees. So there they are. Yesterday William and I scored big. There was this really nice guy selling a Greg Lemond Elite 10 speed roadbike for $30!!! WHAT?! He [...]
Happy President's Day, whatever that means! Yay America. Okay it is Washington's B-day, he's like super famous. Go $1 dollar bill! Educate yourself sucka. Some interesting things to note, The man who co-invented the TV remote, Robert Adler, died at age 93 from heart failure. Let's see, he help create the remote, won awards, contributed to culture and technology, I would say the failure in heart is non-existent. And!!! He died in Boise, Idaho. What a rad guy!

Sasha Dobson is a 26 year old New Yorker, whose latest project Modern Romance is pretty brilliant. It's the perfect soundtrack to a lazy weekend, some sort of jazz/folk/world hybrid. Whatever you wish to call it, Dobson's voice is wonderful and the songs are all great. From jazz standards to Yeah Yeah Yeah covers, there's not a track I don't enjoy. I strongly suggest you download these two and buy this thing at your earliest convenience. I have a real weakness for immensely talented female vocalists: Jolie Holland, Madeline Peyroux, Camera Obscura, Jenny Lewis, Rosie Thomas, the list [...]
If you enjoy the vocal stylings of NYC's Sasha Dobson , you might say she has a cool jazzy lounge style with a Brazilian backbeat. If you don't like the Santa Cruz native, you might say she sounds like bland 70's AM Radio easy listening crapola. Since I'm posting about her, I obviously fall into the first camp. To further show the dichotomy of Dobson, she is scheduled to play Lincoln Center on Feb. 22nd but she was also recently the KCRW Top Tune of the day. Besides Sufjan Stevens, I can't [...]
Number Eight ~ Sasha Dobson: Modern Romance You may notice that ten, nine and eight have a strong female presence. Well, truth be told, I dig chick singers. This won’t be the last female on the list. Sasha's album has been flying under a lot of radars. But if you did quasi-Brazilian, jazzy-folk music that makes great dinner music on a Summer’s night where mojitos are sipped and some Gurkha cigars are smoked, then this album is for you. You could call her The Bossa nova Norah Jones. Mostly in the “Jesse Harris [...]
Sasha Dobson is sorta like Eliane Elias . Her website bio describes her music as “a fusion of Brazilian groove/pop/jazz/American songbookâ€. I dig her voice; I dig her sound. I dig her. She is a talent to be reckoned with; that is to say, I’m sure she’ll be generating some serious blogsphere buzz in the near future. Listen ~ Crescent Get more Sasha Dobson @ The Hype Machine Buy it. Other favs ~ The Walkmen: Many Rivers To [...]
In the radio and records world, promotion folks are always "working" us radio guys to increase the number of plays a record gets on the radio. It's called "upping the spins." So with that, here's a couple cool things I've heard recently whose blog spins should be upped. First in line is Sasha Dobson a singer-songwriter originally from Santa Cruz, California, who now lives in New York City. Her debut album, Modern Romance is [...]

End Your Year With These Album-Ending Tracks (from my top 20 albums from 2006 list)
When I compiled this top twenty list (for Bruce and Heather's 12 X 12 post), I did knocked it out in a hurry, at the end of November. If I could go back now, I would make some changes. The Format would crack the top ten. Damien Rice would move up in numbers. Regina would probably come in second. Greg and Amos would switch seats. Brett Dennen would be voted off the island and replaced by Sonya Kitchell. But it is what it is and hindsight is twenty twenty. No matter how [...]

Top Ten Albums from 2006 ~ Eight
Number Eight ~ Sasha Dobson: Modern Romance You may notice that ten, nine and eight have a strong female presence. Well, truth be told, I dig chick singers. This won’t be the last female on the list. Sasha's album has been flying under a lot of radars. But if you did quasi-Brazilian, jazzy-folk music that makes great dinner music on a Summer’s night where mojitos are sipped and some Gurkha cigars are smoked, then this album is for you. You could call her The Bossa nova Norah Jones. Mostly in the “Jesse Harris [...]
