    Currently revisiting all my albums from 2000 onwards so as things stand:

    In Rainbows - Radiohead
    Joseph Arthur - Come to Where I'm From
    Heathen - David Bowie
    Up - Peter Gabriel
    Modern Blues - The Waterboys

    I'm sure by the time I've completed listening to the whole lot, the list will
    change.

    Derek Bailey - Ballads
    Enrico Rava - On the Dancefloor
    Willie Nelson - Willie & the Wheel (or the Cindy Walker trib)
    JD Allen - Graffiti
    Shelby Lynne - Just a Little Lovin'

    seriously out of step, as usual, and there's no doubt a few I've forgotten - while these are all technically new recordings, they are all also somewhat backward looking.

    The last two came out the same day, a pretty good day for releases. I'm pretty sure it was the last time I walked to a record store and bought something on the release day.

    so many but right now: To Pimp A Butterfly, Speak Now, Let England Shake, Ultraviolence, My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy - but there are so many to choose from so next five
    Greendale, Red, Joanne, Blue Carpet Treatment, 50 Song Memoir - I could do ten of these lists
    I even don't like Butterfly best of all his records but it seems like the most classic? I'm sure I'm forgetting something really obvious on these lists too. Oh yeah, The Unutterable.

    I have limited my choices to not include artists who became well-established prior to the year 2000. It would be a very different list if I had, but I thought I'd give the youngins' (i.e. those who are my age) the opportunity to stand apart from their predecessors.


    1. St. Vincent - Masseduction
    2. Alicia Keys - The Diary of Alicia Keys
    3. The White Stripes - Get Behind Me Satan
    4. The Last Internationale - We Will Reign
    5. Low Cut Connie - Dirty Pictures, Vol. 1
