	Canciones de Mi Padre »rank: 1720 by: Linda Ronstadt 0ur Review: :Topflight pop singer pays tribute to her heritage on this amazing roots ranchera album that also features excellent backing by the world-famous Mariachi Vargas, all under the experienced hand of master arranger-composer-producer Ruben Fuentes. Everything clicks wonderfully here, but numbers that set a new standard include 'Tu Solo Tu,' an incredibly harmonic love ode; 'Por un Amor,' on the price of real love; and 'Los Laureles,' a song of declaration on which Ronstadt soars unbelievably high.

	Gently Weeps »rank: 2135 by: Jake Shimabukuro 0ur Review: :You'll forget all the Tiny Tim, Don Ho, and Hawaiian-music jokes about the ukulele when you hear Gently Weeps, which leaves behind the Roaring Twenties strum and plinky-dink sound of most such music. Jake Shimabukuro sets the tone with the lead-off track from which he takes the album's title, George Harrison's 'While My Guitar Gently Weeps,' unfolding the vulnerable undertow of Harrison's epic lament. A string of covers follows, as Shimabukuro touches the serene with Schubert's 'Ave ...
