The Neville Brothers:

Treacherous: A History of The Neville Brothers 1955-1985:(1988)


Yellow Moon:(1989)

I've said it before, I'll repeat it now, it's unfair how insanely talented the Neville family are, and have been since the fifties. Voices that soar, and musicianship so deep that it grounds the soul in the fertile soil of the Earth. 
Treacherous is a great overview of their early stuff as solo artists, through the formation and rise of the Neville Brothers band. This is a compilation I play quite frequently. Yellow Moon on the other hand, is one of my favorite albums ever. First, there's the Nevilles' talent on full display. Second, it's produced by one of my favorite producers, Daniel Lanois. Who has the incredible ability to create deep atmosphere in the records he touches.
