So these kids dont know hendrix and joplin and tull and allmans and the dead and (70s) david bowie and zep but love thee eyes blind or matchbox fifty or whatever .

I think there is some great music coming out now, but the distribution of music is so diffuse, it is much harder to have a lot of people hearing the same great stuff.
This is what immediately comes to mind:
D'Angelo, Voodoo
Mos Def, Black on Both Sides
Jill Scott, Who is Jill Scott
Joshua Redman, Moodswing (with Christian McBride, Brad Mehldau, and Brian Blade)
Brad Mehldau, Art of the Trio Vol. 1
Blackalicious, Blazing Arrow
The Roots, Things Fall Apart
Handsome Boy Modeling School
Angie Stone, Mahogany Soul
Charlie Hunter, Songs from the Analog Playground
Most of the new music I buy comes from friends' recommendations or new projects by artists I have heard on someone else's project.
