Alt Country-Americana
- Shaking-The HawtThorns (K.P. Hawthorn's vocals suggest a blend of Maura Kennedy and Nicki Bluhm.)
- Superstar-Rosemary Fairweather (Compellingly breathy, whispery vocals.)
- Running Into Love-Taylor Knox (This 2017 release has an '80s New Wave feel in the vocals and guitar. Modern English's "I Melt With You" could segue with it.)
- Zandoli-Marius Cultier (An intriguing stew of international and jazz influences come together in this whirling dervish of a tune. A strong rhythm section underscores the vocals.)
- Franz Schubert: Four Impromptus, Op. post. 142, D.935: I. Allegro moderato (Paul Lewis, piano) (Sorrow gives way to hopefulness, but this energetic movement ends on an ominous note.)
- Toute Ma Joie-Les Blue Stars featuring Blossom Dearie (The English translation is "All My Joy," and it's sung impeccably. I hope it isn't disrespectful that the vocal stylings remind me of the 1950s animated, singing concessions jingle, "Let's all go to the lobby to get ourselves a treat.")
- Hiram-Chuck Loeb featuring Will Lee (The haunting guitar line reminds me of Kerri Anderson's "Labyrinth.")
- Lay Down Your Weary Tune-Jessica Rhaye And The Ramshackle Parade (A faithful, pleasantly sung cover of the Bob Dylan tune.)
- Gershwin Medley-The Modern Jazz Quartet (An elegant, vibraphone and piano-centered tribute.)
