I'm a fan of their acoustic ballads. Checkout "Valentine" and "Question".

One of the most powerful stories I read as a child.

Howard Alden - Jazz

The virtuoso largely behind the soundtrack for Sweet & Lowdown. Check out My Shining Hour for one of the greatest modern jazz guitar recordings of all time.

the book

Cosmic Banditos written by Allan Weisbecker

Simply hysterical. Mr. Quark, a gringo drug dealer and his dog High Pockets; a small gang of banditos lead by the lovable José. A story of drugs, crime, quantum mechanics, and the meaning of life.

the film

Surfing for Life (1999) directed by David L. Brown

A documentary focusing on individuals who have made surfing a core part of their life, and continue to do so into old age. A historical gem.

the book

The Name of the Wind (2007) written by Patrick Rothfuss

The most exciting debut to a fantasy series in recent memory. It's unfortunate this book is labeled fantasy, as so many people who would otherwise enjoy it will never pick it up. Don't be one of them.

Danielle Ate the Sandwich - Folk music

A geeky girl with a goofy personality playing a ukulele and singing surprisingly complex lyrics in a honey-sweet voice. What's not to like?

The Decemberists - Folk rock

I don't know if I'm late to the party, but The Hazards of Love is one of the best albums I've heard in 2009.

Neutral Milk Hotel - Indie folk

Jeff Mangum wrote arguably the greatest indie-rock album of all time, In the Aeroplane Over the Sea. Then, claiming he'd accomplished what he needed to with music, quit playing and became a sculpture

the book

In the Beginning...was the Command Line written by Neal Stephenson

Though some of the arguments in this essay are outdated with the release of OS X, this is still an interesting narrative on the development of the GUI. Worth a read for the context it gives to designing interfaces.

the film

The Usual Suspects (1995) directed by Bryan Singer

Who is Keyser Söze? One of the greatest endings to a film of all time.
