Still need to give the new Felice Brothers album a listen. Not really listened to them since i saw them, just after they released Mix Tape.

[PDAD]

Right, firstly, the album that I was referring to (God bless you, amigo) was actually 2012 and therefore has no place in this thread.

Secondly, and of far greater importance, I appear to have completely missed Mixtape. How did that happen? Thank you for bringing this oversight to my attention!!

... And Israel Nash Gripka gets better with every listen. Sounds like a long lost Neil Young album... The last 4 tracks in particular are superb.

[PDAD]

Tonight at the Arizona is a favourite of mine, partly because 'roll on Arte' was the first song of theirs I ever heard, and remains my favourite.

[riverlodge]

not my usual sort of 'thaang', but am liking Falling Faster Than You Can Run quite a lot.

[killyourtv]

I do like PP's list - particularly Lanterns, Low and Agnes, to which I'd add Daughter, Iron and Wine (Desert Babbler the standout), Indians, Laura Marling and the Prefabs LP which I'm still convinced was recorded in 1986.

[perfectpassion]

Thanks killyourtv

I still have not listened to Iron and Wine

I forgot Night Beds, John Grant, Ralfe Band, Paper Aeroplanes and The Milk Carton Kids.

Bands to watch for 2014, Paul Thomas Saunders (whom I have been going on about since 2010) will be releasing his album this year and Hot Feet from Stroud and proud. I hope neither of them plays at EoTR
