Radiohead - In Rainbows (2007)

Absolute awesomeness from the worlds best band from Oxford. Recently purchased on vinyl to add to my “must-have-on-vinyl” list. There’s a few “must-haves” from the R-Heads.

Hurts - Exile (2013)

One of my less-than-$2-purchases, this completely bombastic, thickly layered, schizo-genre jumper is nevertheless an intriguing and baffling listening experience. There’s nothing here resembling a real instrument but the beats and hooks are infectious.

The Smiths - Hat Full Of Hollow (1984)

This early compilation of non-album, alternate takes and BBC sessions is The Smiths at their rawest. Love him or loath him, I can’t imagine someone other than Morrisey singing these songs.

Che-Fu - 2 B.S. Pacific [digital] (1998)

“Chains” is right up there on top of my favourite Kiwi songs list. Thankfully, this debut record by Post-Supergroove funk-rocker turned Hip-Hop Maestro Che-Fu is of equal quality throughout.

The Beatles - Abbey Road (1969)

It’s 50 years since The Beatles walked across that pedestrian crossing opposite Abbey Road Studios. While not quite displacing “Help” as the most significant Beatles record for me, it’s comes pretty close.
