As music director of Weekend Edition Sunday, NPR's Ned Wharton supervises music continuity for the show, keeps tabs on what's new and noteworthy in the music world and produces many of the artist features heard on the program.

For this edition of Director's Cuts, he looks at a pair of CDs designed to be appreciated with visual components.
