I always find it interesting to hear out about what recordings other people find interesting. There have been many posts about definitive classical recordings featuring the clarinet, what other clarinet music do you like to listen to. Strange or offbeat is O.K. too.

I just recently viewed the Woody Allen documentary "Wild Man Blues" and enjoyed it immensely.

Bulgarian Wedding music. Ivo Papazov is the "main" clarinetist from Bulgaria doing this stuff.
Anything Balkan. There are some great Greek and Albanian guys out there too. Turkish folk music is also good.

CD collection of Spike Jones and the City Slickers recordings from the 40's and early 50's. Excellent musicians playing creative and very, very funny arrangements. "Chinese Muletrain" is one of my favorites.
Other than that, I have a VERY LONG list of recordings by my jazz clarinet heros.

As a reformed 80s metalhead, I always loved Van Halen's "Big Bad Bill Is Sweet William Now."

My favorite non-classical clarinet music is definitely played by Gordon Goodwin's Big Phat Band. They have two CDs out, and Eddie Daniels plays clarinet on both. He is an amazing player, and Goodwin is an equally awesome composer. Eddie plays clarinet on: Sing, Sang, Sung, a hipped-up version of Sing, Sing, Sing; Bach Two-Part Invention in Dm, a really cool version of a pretty vanilla Bach piece; Thad Said No, a tribute to Eddie's origins; and a swingin' arrangement of Mozart's 40th Symphony. If you haven't heard it, you should check it out.

"File under: Finnish ambient techno chant" with Tapani Rinne on bass clarinet and soprano sax. A collaboration between Finnish band RinneRadio and the Saami (Lapland) yoik chanter Wimme. A fantastic disc, BMG, 1997. The name says it all!
"Astrakan Cafe" by the Anouar Brahem Trio with oud, clarinet and bendir / darbouka (hand drums). This is wonderful Mediterranean / eastern european / arabic music, sounding somehow modern and ancient at the same time. Turkish clarinettist Barbaros Erkose plays a metal clarinet (perhaps in G?). ECM, 2000.

I'll second that. Ivo Papazov is a phenomenon that no clarinetist should miss.
