Blood on the Tracks can't be beat for a rainy day cure.

The Sun Kil Moon album is excellent. Highly recommended.

Tom Waits - Alice
Miles Davis - Kind of Blue

Off the top of my head, anyway.

Is Sun Kil Moon's Ghost any good? I'm kidding. But, really, how good? I've been THIS close to buying it for some time.

Oops.

You should get it. It's essential.

This was all I could come up with. so here it goes. And I know everyone hates this band, especially sinced they ruined the classic Joni Mitchell song, Big Yellow Taxi and the fact that the lead singer publicly proclaimed his dislike for his own fans, but I got to say

Counting Crows - August & Everything After
Songs: round here, perfect blue buildings, time & time again, sullivan street, anna begins, raining in baltimore, rain king, a murder of one & ghost train.

and sometimes Recovering the Satellites and on a occassion, This Desert Life. Never, Hard Candy, it sucks.

And to add on to A&EA, even the boots from that era are depressing because of the alt. lyrics. The one that really gets me is the add on to the end of Perfect Blue Buildings with Prince's "Sometimes it rains in April"

Go ahead & start the basing.

Dylan's "Love and Theft."

Two records that I either just identify with rainy, dreary days or have found myself playing when the weather was as such are

Uncle Tupelo's March 16-20, 1992 and
Radiohead's OK Computer.

If the outside temperature is low ( < 50 degrees F), I gravitate towards Neil Young's Zuma.

Anyone out there? Anyone as bored as me at work?
