Shawn Lee - Shawn Lee's Incredible Tabla Band: "Tabla Rock" (2011)
- Multi-instrumentalist/producer Shawn Lee's full-album cover of Incredible Bongo Band’s 1972 classic “Bongo Rock”, best known for the oft-sampled drum break in the song "Apache". Lee enlisted the help of tabla player Prithpal Rajput (aka Cyber of the Asian Dub Foundation), and Style Council keyboardist Mick Talbot to help fulfill this amazing vanity project. According to Lee - "Why cover a song when you can cover a whole album?"







The Artwoods - Art Gallery (1966)
- Sole album (plus 14 non-LP tracks from 1964 - 1967) from British Invasion-era blues/R&B combo featuring Art Wood, older brother of Ron Wood (Small Faces, Rolling Stones) and future Deep Purple keyboardist Jon Lord.









Ólafur Arnalds - For Now I Am Winter (2013)








Sunny Day Real Estate - The Rising Tide (2000)
- Fourth album from the originators of what became known as "emo-rock". The Rising Tide was SDRE's first post-reunion album, and their first recorded as a trio, yet it contains some of their most epic and grandest-sounding music up to that point.
