The 5th album Sky at Night by Manchester-based alt-rock trio I Am Kloot celebrates a 10th anniversary today! Produced by Guy Garvey and Craig Potter of Elbow, the LP was shortlisted for the Mercury Prize. Love Northern Skies and I Still Do.

No.1033 05/07/2019

The Hootie and The Blowfish album Cracked Rear View was released 25 years ago today! I’ll be honest, this wasn’t my bag. But, the band from South Carolina sold a lot of records. Apparently the joint 19th-best-selling album of all time in the US. Hands up, who owns this?

No.668 05/07/2018

The 2nd Crowded House album Temple of Low Men is 30 years old this month! Neil Finn’s songs on Temple have greater depth and are more personal than more familiar CH tracks. Includes the singles Better Be Home Soon and Into Temptation. Never got to see them live…#regret

No.303 05/07/2017

The 3rd Otis Redding album Otis Blue, released in 1965 is a thing of beauty! Mostly recorded 24 hours at Stax Studios, Memphis. Huge Respect!
