My personal favourite is the title track Letter To You. This is my driving album. An incredible guitarist with a stunning voice and fabulous collection of songs. There have been so many great Irish album releases this year and this is without doubt up there with the best. Those harmonies I play this latest album from Jim non-stop. I loved this album from the first track Bad News Blues. Her voice sounds incredible. Check out Big Black Train a song about a looming, unstoppable depression.

This is the album that I will always associate with lockdown On a major label it could and should have been huge. How many times have we all said that!? A room full of record industry types: Labels, P. R, music journos and assorted ageing pop stars yes, Martyn Fry, I saw you who were all clearly happy to be anywhere!

When questions where being read out, the room fell into an awed silence- it was VERY competitive. But as soon as one of us got up to play, all hell broke loose as they argued over answers whilst our performances were ignored! The only upside was that the event was sponsored by Gibson guitars, and we were all given a new Epiphone model that they were launching.

Richard Hawley and Colin Elliot produced her debut, and Shez Sheridan played on it, as was the case with our own Country Darkness and our earlier album The Reconciliation. They all struck a resounding chord with me this year: Terry Allen Just Like Moby Dick I have known Terry for over 20 years and played shows with him a number of times.

A new album is always a treat mainly because they are so damned infrequent but I love the fact that he does what he wants, when he wants. I think he is just as happy sculpting or painting. This new album is quite brilliant and as lyrically evocative as ever. Brilliant album but it wins the worse album cover of the year. And he still has it. He has that something that draws us in, makes us want to listen.

There is Bob, and then there is everyone else. Dan Penn Living On Mercy has been a very bad year in many respects, but to get a new Dan Penn album as well as Terry Allen is cause for celebration. This new album is classic Dan, totally timeless.

But it is a whole bunch of top draw songs. His world view is so unique. His way with words is unexpected, dark and so damn funny. It makes you feel like he is in the same space as you, playing live. Not many artists myself included can let that happen. We need a few more. Chuck Prophet The Land That Time Forgot Chuck has kept folks entertained during lockdown with some choice covers and gentle humour on line.

He and James McMurtry I always look out for on-line performances. Plus, his video for the song Get Off The Stage is quite brilliant. And the song nails Tump perfectly. Many songs from this album will be killer live and I look forward to seeing him again when we are all back out touring Jeb Loy Nichols Season Of Decline Just an EP, but my good pal with the sweetest soul voice delivers once again.

Special commendation for the brilliant, suitably apt, title track. Laura Marling Song For Our Daughter She is a miracle, head and shoulders above her contemporaries, and this is another really fine album. I do prefer the production on that album. Another song with a timeless quality. Anyway, in an online exchange about the genius of Roddy, my pal Danny Champ pointed this album out as his favourite, so I immediately got it.

While it does not quite dislodge High Land Hard Rain from its place in my all-time favourites list, North Star is a stunning album and should have been the one to move him into the major league. Some of these songs are anthemic I can imagine vast crowds singing them back to him yet they never lose that brilliant songwriting craft he has.

All of the song is good, not just the catchy chorus. So, North Star was my belated discovery of , accompanying me on the few journeys I was able to make. A truly great driving album! Nobody sings like her either. This album makes me want to walk right into it, get to know the people in the songs. I also love the production. Raye Zaragoza Woman in Color Clever songwriting and beautiful singing. I really take a lot away from this album when it comes to perspective. And killer vocals! Phoebe Bridgers saved me in April with her up-tempo and super catchy single Kyoto!

Everything was up in the air and the world turned a dark corner. Then this beautiful album came along and summer started to show its colours. I love the lyrics, the soundscape and her voice. Waxahatchee Saint Cloud This album blooms of hard-won wisdom, painful and heartfelt songs and a poetic pen that glides over the pages with such a natural ease.

It sounds like friends playing together. I will go as far as to compare this album to one of my favourite albums by Lucinda Williams: Car Wheels on a Gravel Road. I love to listen to this album while walking. This is both the Taylor Swift we got to know when she started out and the pop wizard that we have met the last couple of years. Laura Marling Song For Our Daughter Laura Marling has been a huge inspiration for a long time and I thank the higher power for her music and her presence throughout this year.

Her guitar lessons on Instagram have been a highlight! Jennings famously had to fight his label to get them to release this, but then it was a hit among non-country audiences — it famously got a rave review in Rolling Stone — and launched Jennings into a more meaningful career than he was set up to have.

He opened the gates for all the major label outlaws coming behind him. Willie Nelson: Red Headed Stranger After some years pumping out songs that were more famous for other people, Willie Nelson decamped to Columbia Records — home of Bob Dylan — in the early '70s, where they were foolhardy enough to give him full creative control. He responded with the best albums of his career: Red Headed Stranger, a sparsely produced concept album based on a song he used to play on his old radio show, is one of the best of those.

The Outlaws Putting a compilation album here is probably cheating, but this album had more to do with solidifying the players, the sound, and the aesthetics of outlaw country. Instead of shooting for the middle-of-the-road country that made her a household name, she basically went full rock on TNT; this thing has more in common with a Joan Jett album than a Loretta Lynn album.

He had nothing left to lose; his career was flatlining, and his voice was slower and on the verge of breaking, and then he hit the studio with Rick Rubin for the first of the American albums and he spent the last decade of his career as famous as he was in the '60s.
