Every year, since 2004, I've done an annual Best Of Year CD. Not what was best in the stuff released in the year, but a selection of what I had the most enjoyment from during the year. It may be new stuff, it may be old songs that I know and love or it could just be something from the past that I've just discovered.
This year:
Sesame Street / Oscar The Grouch: I Hate Christmas
Mumford & Sons: Sigh No More
Carter USM: After The Watershed
The Dresden Dolls: Dear Jenny
La Roux: Bulletproof
Depeche Mode: The Meaning Of Love (Fairly Odd Mix)
Little Boots: New In Town
The Clash: Guns Of Brixton
The Good, The Bad & The Queen: The Good, The Bad & The Queen
Billy Bragg & The Young Coppers (with Eliza Carthy & Simon Emmerson): Hard Times Of England Retold
The Wonderstuff: Inertia
Roxy Music: Out Of The Blue
Lily Allen: Everyone’s At It
Leonard Cohen: ‘Aint No Cure For Love
Sheila Chandra & John Cooper: ‘Ouses, ‘Ouses, ‘Ouses
