Bravo for including good selections from Serge Gainsbourg, Caetano Veloso and Leonard Cohen. I actually prefer Velos's Transa and Leonard Cohen's Live in London 2009 is marvelous. As great as their catalogues are (and they are great)why don't you try listing fewer Beatles, Radiohead and Dylan and give us a few more examples of some other music that you like?
