Eddie Suzuki New Hawaii - High Tide (1973)

OK, it’s quite corny in places but that only half describes this slightly easy/uneasy, but effortlessly listenable recording from Hawaii’s premier ex-shoe shining, piano shop proprietor.

Goldfrapp - Felt Mountain (2000)

Wow! This ain’t rock’n’roll, this is an electro-cabaret masterpiece. Tricky prodigy Alison Goldfrapp, croons like Liza Minelli, yodels like Melanie Oesch, and whistles like Roger Whitaker.

Kirsten Edkins - Art & Soul (2015)

I didn’t know anything about this recording before playing this via Tidal this evening. As the reveiw states “Saxophonist Kirsten Edkins delivers a delightful and charming batch of mainstream jazz with her engaging and exuberant debut Art & Soul.

Elton John - Honky Chateau (1973)

For various reasons, I felt a little nostalgic this evening. Before Bowie and T-Rex came along, Elton was my goto artist.

Asobi Seksu - Asobi Seksu (2007)

Fantastic debut from New York-based group Asobi Seksu. While firmly in the noise rock genre, it’s fabulously diverse throughout. On the very first listen there’s a lot to like about this record.
