Hi Andy, like you I have the Beth Gibbons album and CD and both are played with love. I’ve heard a couple of tracks from Lenkar’s latest album and just cannot warm to her. But then that’s what’s fascinating about our hobbies, lots of genre to get one’s😊 teeth into…see you tomorrow
The Lenker album was a real grower for me. I ilked it to start, but much more as time went on. Beth's is just brillient on every level. Thanks for watching, Myles. Cheers mate
A brilliant album by Beth Gibbons, 'Floating on a moment' is one of my favorites songs from this year... and I like Adrienne Lenker when she's on her own or with Big Thief!
I tend to agree with your reviews of these. Both are really nice albums, but Bright Future shades it for me. Looking forward to the rest of your rankings. Thanks for sharing.

That's a nice list, Simon. There are a few I don't know and will check out. A couple still to come on my countdown. In hindsight I should have included Moin on mine, but it came a bit late and I hadn't listened to it enough. Thanks for watching. Cheers mate
Yes, I’m enjoying your countdown on a daily basis. Have been enjoying Moin over their last 4 releases, and was encouraged when you mentioned them a few weeks ago. If you haven’t heard it I’d recommend their album Moot! From 2021, which was my entry point and possibly still my favourite. Keep up the good work 👍🏼
You bought some cracking albums, Steve, a fair number of which I copied you! Overall I bought a ridiculous number >80! I had to leave so many out of my top 24. I keep thinking I should have included that one! Thanks for watching, Steve. Cheers

Both of these are fascinating albums- I too wouldn’t be able to put one over the other 🤔👍
Two brilliant singers, and so different. Thanks for watching, Richard. Cheers

I have Moot, Simon. That was my discovery of Moin too
It seems to me I didn’t buy any good albums this year Andy. I did hear good things on Gibbons album
