Interesting to note some of the rock and pop nominees:
- Springsteen
- Paul McCartney
- John Fogerty
- Bon Jovi (yes he is old-ish!!!)
- Chaka Khan

And that ignores the Country, Polka Dot Dance, etc. - sorry Latch.

There's life is the old 'uns yet, it appears.

My last two CDs (don't do this download thing until after Christmas) were both Springsteen (Magic and Live in Dublin).

That new Robert Plant album with Alison Krauss is rather splendid.

And he's right old.

Im going to adopt the word 'splendid' and use it more on the site.

Thanks for that.

You have to be drinking tea whilst saying it though.

As for the nominations, how is Back to Black listed as best album of 2007 when it was released in 2006? She won the Q award for best album as well.

Probably safe to say that this is your typical American love in. No Neon Bible, No Surprises, Volta....

Album of the year. Bill Callahan - Woke on a whale heart.

Not sure why I had to say that but I did. Closely followed by Neon Bible.

It is splendid.

with your pinky in the air

and when you greet someone it has to be....

(what do we breathe - air)
(what grows on your head - hair)
(where does a fox live - lair)

(put them together)

air hair lair, nice to meet you.
