Creedence Clearwater Revival
Classic rock album, 2010-08-09
Creedence were so big in the 60's and early 70's. I'd forgotten how amazing their music was. This album contains all their best songs. A nostalgia fest for some, but to me their music still sounds fresh and alive.

The National
Very High Violet, 2010-08-14
I'm probably one of the many people whom has only recently discovered The National, but this album has blown me away on a number of levels - the high quality of the songwriting, the overall production and as another reviewer has said, the ability to 'tingle arms'.
'England' was the first track which I heard from this album. It's the reason I watched them at Glastonbury, but at no point was I expecting to come away from that afternoon set a converted fan. As it is, I rushed out to purchase the limited purple double-vinyl set and have since purchased it also on CD for the car.
The first time I listened to it, I still wasn't sure; the first 4 or 5 songs didn't grab me like I thought they would but then 'Bloodbuzz Ohio' kicks in and it all seems to start making sense. Tracks 7 to 10 are incredible. I still love 'England', with the almost-perfect line 'You must be somewhere in London, you must be loving your life in the rain'. 'Lemonworld' isn't a songtitle which would have you running for the 'play' button, but believe me when I tell you that it's an amazing track. It's the kind of song which makes me want to fly to America, hire a convertible and drive across from Florida to California, listening to this song on the CD player. 'Conversation 16' is similarly stunning - I simply love the line "Now we'll leave the silver city 'cause all the silver girls gave us black dreams".
If this album doesn't appear in countless "albums of the year" at the end of 2010, then something's seriously wrong. 2010 has surprised (and surpassed) my expectations. After serious disappointment earlier in the year from the likes of Ellie Goulding's and Marina & The Diamonds' albums, 2010 has seen some seriously good releases - the Domino State's debut album 'Uneasy Lies The Crown', Serena-Maneesh's 'Abyss In B Minor', Exit Calm's eponymous debut - and now this.
This album is a fantastic listen. Definitely Recommended.

Taylor Swift
18-year-old singing sensation Taylor Swift presents the listener with a conundrum. Her music isn’t particularly inventive--indeed it’s built largely on what you could call country music clichés--yet she does what she does so well you have to work really hard not to like it. With her blond hair, blue-eyes and pretty face, it’s easy to write Swift off as yet another "tweenie". But beneath the glossy exterior lurks some genuine talent: she writes her own tunes, plays (some of) her own instruments and even though she sings about the inevitable pop themes of love and heartbreak, she doesn’t rely on any "sex-sells" cynicism to shift her records. All of which is to say ...
why i had i never heard of you Taylor Swift!!, 2010-07-05
I discovered Taylor and hence the album Fearless completely by accident and it seems a bit of a coincidence,i follow closely the career of fellow pennsylvanian Amanda Seyfried when i heard the soundtrack for letters to Juliet i had to investigate further.When i heard some more i was hooked i had not heard of Taylor before this and put it down to my age(being the wrong side of fifty means you miss alot of good stuff)I don't intend to make that mistake again i cant wait for the next album,it's nice to have found some quality out there it restores my faith in the younger generation,Thanks Taylor(by the way there is not a bad track on this album you will enjoy every song)

Ain't No Grave, 2010-08-04
Excellent album. Moving, moody - I only wish it was longer. Stand out tracks:
1 Corinthians & Redemption Day. The whole 'American Recordings' series is excellent and this is a fitting finale.

Court Yard Hounds
Hounds, 2010-08-20
The reciept of this cd was the fastest I have ever received, ordered Monday morning delivered Tuesday morning. and the cd itself was still in the shrink wrapping, even though it did not come from a store, but was advertised as second user. The cd, it is brilliant, the girls voices really compliment each other and their choice of music is excellent. I look forward to more from them, the 'Court Yard Hounds' are a dou to watch for in the future.

Tired Pony
Tired Pony - A return to great organic music, 2010-09-01
I'm a big fan of Gary Lightbody's music writing. What can I say the man moves me. That he and his mates started the band Tired Pony with budding relationships, a couple takes per song and not a lot of massaging seemed brave to me.
To each his own.
But WOW! What a great CD..."The Place We Ran From". Soulful and full of visions one conjures looking at a cloud laced sky or starry night. I love it and frequently just keep it on a loop.
I have my ticket to the LA show Oct 4th and can't freekin' wait.

Simply Gorgeous, 2010-08-07
saw this girl last year and was blown away by her voice and her stories and spunky personality, then she was solo and raw but the songs were still touching and beautiful.
ive been really impressed with this album.. its really lush without being too sweet,the production is subtle and it lets the songs and voice really fly.
its all seem so effortless -the lyrics are just so brilliantly delivered- every listen gives up a new fantastic line to impress,love it, love it, love it
