here goes –
- Bill Frisell – Prelude (from Quartet – a really lovely album)
- The Kinks – Mr Pleasant (from the best of – never before has one band ran the gamut of songs from ‘perfect’ to ‘dreadful’ quite so spectacularly.)
- Kings X – Mudd (from Ogre Tones – major return to form)
- Ry Cooder – Paris, Texas (mmmmmmmmmmm)
- Hinda Hicks – When You Touch Me There (revealing my hidden love of 80s and 90s R ‘n’ B)
- Steve Lawson/Jeff Kaiser – Track 4 (soon-to-be released duet project I recorded in California in January with trumpeter jeff Kaiser. probably the most ‘out’ thing I’ve ever done)
- Mark Isham – Part iii (from Tibet)
- Paul Simon – How The Heart Approaches What It Yearns (from One Trick Pony – another amazing PS lyric and vocal)
- Finn Peters – Ballad Boy (from the album Su-Ling, just about to be released on Babel Label. Lovely stuff from a load of F-IRE collective players)
- Paul Simon – Have A Good Time (always room for more Paul Simon, this one’s from Still Crazy After All These Years)
