Hadn't bought an album from this year until this one came out, gets better with every listen.

I do try and make a point when I go to a car boot to pick up an album/CD by someone I've never heard before. Some are :tup: , but to be honest probably more are :tdown:

Last weeks purchase for the princely sum of 20p was Boards of Canada - Trans Canada Highway EP - definitely a :tdown: (apologies to anyone who thinks this is great) :moggy:

Ryley Walker ordered, may have to do his back catalogue too. Going to be tough to shift from album of the year to be honest after hearing it for the first time today. I'm hooked

I really liked his Maraqopa album, the next one not so much at first but did grow on me, this one is getting better with each listen, not heard of his earlier stuff though.

I will give R W a listen when we get back, the internet here isn't good enough to listen to youtube clips.

Another newbie I have played a couple of times now and enjoying is, Jess Williamson - Cosmic Wink, think you may enjoy it too.

Wife's family are from The Rhonda, abysmal.

Wales has so many lovely places but a lot also needs some money spending on it, I can understand why the locals get so frustrated with the government. Been to Snowdon today, understandable there but even big towns struggle with the internet service.
