Yo-Ho! Welcome back, me hearties! Enjoy our latest plunders.

It seems like every album John Mayer puts out is better and more soulful than the last, and that’s saying a lot because the hipster-esque Blues guitarist came out smokin’ hot a few years ago. Now hear his best stuff live on his new live performance LP Where The Light Is: John Mayer Live in Los Angeles. “Where the light is” is, of course, a lyric from his hit song “Gravity” from his Continuum album. How much more soulful can it get than a live album, especially from a babyfaced white boy? We think maybe plundering Jessica Simpson for a couple years got John’s creative juices flowing. We kid, we kid! $10.

With all the crappy crunk music that’s out today, at least there are a few true hip-hop artists keeping rap alive.

Lupe’s new album is sure to be a some sick jams you can pop an ollie to. See the skateboarding lyricist after the break. $10.

It’s been a while since RZA put out beats like he did on 8 Diagrams, the new LP from Wu-Tang Clan. The Clan is back on point with a number of hot tracks such as “The Heart Gently Weeps” which is based on “While My Guitar Gently Weeps” by the Beatles, among others.

If you’re a fan of real Hip-Hop, 8 Diagrams is essential to any library. $10.

Ever wonder about those creepy pianos that play by themselves? Well they do exist. The Yamaha Disklavier piano can be hooked up to a internet streaming radio service called Disklavier radio, which in turn sends MIDI files right down the piping of the piano and stores them in the 80GB hard drive. The MIDI files can even send accompaniment parts that can be only heard in the pianos speakers. Just for fun, you can picture your home being haunted by a bunch of hip music ghosts. $20,000.

Radiohead basically cut out the middleman by not signing with a record label for their latest album, In Rainbows. You can get it as a box set or a download which Radiohead so generously offers with a “name your own price” download. Yep, that means you can pay whatever you like, or not pay at all for In Rainbows. Of course, most people will show some class by kicking back Radiohead a few bucks for their trouble. The box set, however, isn’t free. $80.
