I have 2 to mention:
Ed Harcourt-"Strangers"- I know this was released in the UK in 2004.But the
release date here was Feb. 2005 which was when I got it.It is a
stuner.Recorded in Sweden with some great help, it stands to be his best and
most assured work.
Martha Wainwright-"BMFA"- This is only an ep[full album soon] and it is
going to attract attention for it's profanity.But I have fallen under it's
spell.I truly believe she makes those words musical.The title cut has a
power about it that grabs you.A real grower. I heard about it in the year
end Mojo.Nora Jones picked it as her favorite of last year.I am not a fan of
hers, but what she said intrigued me.That and it's provocative title. Trust
me on this one. It is worth a listen.Can't wait for the full album.
I have been listening to a lot of the Swedish rock that Parasol is
offering.Stand out stuff from The Bear Quartet and Thirdimension ,just to
name two.I am impressed.
So much still to come this year.
