Guns 'N' Roses - Greatest Hits

2009-01-06T11:57:00.000-08:00

Reading the Slash book at the moment.. Amazing how they got to where they did considering the destruction the caused along the way...not the kind of neighbours you want living next door.

Amadou And Mariam - Welcome To Mali

2008-12-08T10:09:00.000-08:00

So as it happens the other album I missed out on came in at "number two" described as being influenced by Mariam's " childhood love of French pop and her husbands fondness of Jimmy Page". There are also some big names on it such as Damon Albarn producing the opener "Sabali".

Thanks SSFDL

Bon Iver - For Emma , Forever Ago

2008-12-08T09:58:00.001-08:00

I gotta look at the Observer Music Monthly top 50 albums of 2008 and I must admit I had only listened to 7.5 of the top ten ( sorry Kanye, maybe you can have this post removed too! ) and the "number one" album of 2008 had passed me by after just a one listen back in the summer. Then as I read through the rest I saw Madrugada had not even made the top 50! Sorry Bon.

Tom Waits - Ireland's Number 1 For Christmas

2007-12-14T10:46:00.000-08:00

This campaign has being set up by another Irish blogger and I'm interested to see how it turns out. Not that I care who is number one for Christmas but if you had to choose between Tom Waits or the yet un-released, probably un-named X -Factor, Westlife / Girls Aloud rubbish then whatever I can do to help, I will. So if you want to see Tom Waits number one for Christmas with his classic "Christmas Card From A Hooker In Minneapolis" just click on the title and it will take you to the Waitsforchristmas blog where everything is explained. If you havent heard the song before then check out the blog player, you might also wanna grab a bottle of Gin! Its a little bit tragic!
