THE BLOODHOUND GANG's cheerily obnoxious Hooray for Boobies, find Licensed to Ill (1986), the young, dumb, and snotty debut from the pre-pious BEASTIE BOYS.

Bluesman ROBERT JOHNSON, try the new Hot Foot Powder, a CD of Johnson covers by Fleetwood Mac founder PETER GREEN with NIGEL WATSON SPLINTER GROUP.

KENNY G's weightless lite-jazz stylings, chill out to similar blood-pressure-lowering sounds on Shake It Up (2000) by BONEY JAMES and RICK BRAUN.

MASSIVE ATTACK's proto-trip-hop classic Blue Lines (1991), fall in line for a copy of MORCHEEBA's massive-sounding, just-released Fragments of Freedom.

Positive, pop-oriented soul sistahs like DIONNE FARRIS and DES'REE, seek out former Brownstone member KINA's new self-titled debut.
