Neil Young – Le Noise CD/LP (Reprise)
Le Noise features Young on acoustic and electric guitars with producer Daniel Lanois adding his trademark sonic textures, creating one of the most sonically arresting albums Young has ever recorded. No band, no overdubs, just “a man on a stool and me doing a nice job on the recording,” as Lanois puts it.

Aloe Blacc – Good Things CD (Stone’s Throw)
The path from his debut Shine Through in 2006 to Good Things is akin to the maturation of Marvin Gaye between That’s The Way Love Is and the What’s Going On masterwork that followed. A definitive declaration that places Blacc directly in the framework of modern soul.

Abe Vigoda – Crush CD/LP (Post Present Medium)
Those who clocked Abe Vigoda’s transition from 2006’s angular-punk debut Kid City to 2008’s startling tropicali-punk Skeleton should know the L.A. quartet aren’t ones for repeating themselves. To Skeleton’s hot-hot-hot template, they now add glassy shards of cold-wave pop, with synthesizers, sequencers and altogether broodier beats.

Clapton touches on everything from century-old traditional brass bands to little-known country blues to brand-new originals, and features an all star cast of musical collaborations started with the legendary JJ Cale, drummer Jim Keltner, bassist Willie Weeks, and keyboardist Walt Richmond — and the sessions later added guests including Steve Winwood, Wynton Marsalis, Sheryl Crow, Allen Toussaint, and Derek Trucks.
