CD#84 Feist - Metals
One of my top 10 YouTube videos is a live performance of a Ron Sixsmith song, which she sings beautifully, with characteristic vocal mannerisms that are all over this album, great singing and some cool tunes.
CD#85 Grandaddy - The Broken Down Comforter Collection
This has a Neil Young/Flaming Lips feel to it. It's got some great song titles if nothing else, like "Sikh in a Baja VW Bug", "Kim You Bore Me to Death" and "For the Dishwasher".
CD#86 Big Star - # 1 Record
Critically acclaimed and poorly served by the record company this was never a hit, and I find it a bit hit and miss. There are some strong tunes on here though, my favourite being Ballad Of El Goodo, which Counting Crows do a great cover of.
CD#87 Homespun - Homespun
Written/played by Dave Rotheray from The Beautiful South and sung by the wonderful Sam Brown, lovely.
