17) Allison Moorer

I first saw/heard Allison supporting Trisha Yearwood in the 90's and the group of us who went bought her debut album at the interlude. What started out as regular 'Country' went so much farther...

This morning's soundtrack is my introduction to the wonderful Robert Cray in 1986...'Strong Persuader'. 39yrs old today and still sounds amazing ☕ 🥞

One of my favourite 'live' records is 20yrs old this weekend. 99% of 'live' albums are boring crap but this is a cracker. Real energy which, if you've seen Wilco live, is essential to capture. Play loud ☕ 🥣

16) The Dears

I got their debut album in 2000 and their latest came out this year. They deserve to have their music heard more widely. Just lovely melodic pop music with bags of style...

Listening in the black with low lights on around the kitchen, wind chill taking the outside temp to below zero celsius, dog at my feet...perfect

15) Stevie Wonder - 'Sir Duke'

"For there's Basie, Miller, Satchmo. And the king of all, Sir Duke. And with a voice like Ella's ringing out there's no way the band could lose"

Get rid of unique voices to have "broad mainstream appeal" and “more mainstream, easy listening tracks which will appeal to audiences aged 45 and over”. Radio 2... celebrity dreck. 6Music... banal dreck. Radio 3... ClassicFM dreck. US public radio a beacon; KEXP, WXPN, WFUV seek them out people!

"There was Frankie Lyman, Bobby Fuller, Mitch Ryder (they were rockin') Jackie Wilson, Shangri-Las, Young Rascals (they were rockin'). Spotlight on Martha Reeves. Let's don't forget James Brown"

14) 'Kool Thing' - Sonic Youth

I went to what turned out to be one of my Top 5 gigs in 1990. Sonic Youth on the 'Goo' tour played Barrowlands with Teenage Fanclub as support...I was in feedback heaven.

14) 'American Trilogy'

Into the top2 and were now at the point where they are touching greatness. 'The Great Eastern' is as good an 'indie' album as there has even been made. Monumental sound...
