Summer Listening

In addition to reading books this summer, and a little so-called "work", I was introduced (or re-introduced) to some new (to me) music. I can think of several instances where I've become aware of some music through a seemingly chance encounter with a person, a performance, a kiosk in a music store, a radio playing in a store, or a too-loud ipod on the bus. None of these selections has a super-interesting story associated with my discovery, but they have been on summer play list.

Billy Elliot - the Musical (music by Elton John)
Carmina Burana (Carl Orff)
In Between Dreams (Jack Johnson)
Mass (Leonard Bernstein)
The Best of Peter, Paul, & Mary

Do you have any suggestions for music that I should consider for a future playlist?
