What was the music album you weren’t expecting to be that good at all? You know, the one which took you completely by surprise?

Mine was Midge Ure “Orchestrated”.

I think it’s phenomenal.

The Soundtrack to Bridget Jones Diary. Not a film I'd watch but some great songs on there.

You’re welcome. It was a one time only deal by them I think but tbh. They made it perfectly so who needs to make another album?

Am an old fogey, so always a bit suspicious when someone recommends new music to me, especially my children…….. but I really enjoyed listening to Waxahatchee when they recommended I listen to their Saint Cloud album

Victory For The Comic Muse by The Divine Comedy is, to my mind, their (his) best output ever.

And the track Lady Of A Certain Age, as well as holding me spellbound the first time I heard it on the radio, reminds me somehow of my Aunt

Pale Green Ghosts by John Grant isn't bad, either

Good man!

always thought it was good- then i got my new workshop and stuck a big ass stereo in there with a large stereo separation...and the sheer quality of the production blew me away. I'd go as far as saying its one of the best albums ever made- Phenomenal!
