This album is on so many “best albums ever” or “albums you must listen to before you die” lists, that it had to come up here eventually. Away from home at my mother’s, so Spotify on the iPad provides the music for today.
Any artist that appears constantly on Radio 2’s “all request Friday” immediately is deemed by me to be too mainstream and popular – “Hello, Simon, I’d like Brown-Eyed Girl by Van Morrison, please”. Oh, FFS, get yourself an imagination. I do like the fact that he’s a miserable tosser, though. Well done, there. Top marks.
