When the sun is out & loafing seems like the perfect lifestyle choice, you’ll be hard to pushed to find a better album to play as you make all the big choices... ham or cheese sarnie? evian or volvic? turn the page or zzzz? it’s the sound of lovely weekend laziness, so embrace it & lets bring the country to a standstill, to the sounds of Richard Hawley (Just Like The Rain), The Feeling (Sewn), Keane (Somewhere Only We Know), Ben Harper (Diamonds On The Inside), Animal Liberation Orchestra (Girl, I Wanna Lay You Down), Rufus Wainwright (California), Snow Patrol (Run), Athlete (Wires), Coldplay (Fix You), Breaks Co-op (The Otherside), Ryan Adams (Wonderwall) & Paul Weller with the fab Wild Wood.
There’s plenty more where that came from too, old and new, stadium-types and Barfly-alike. Deep breath... Stephen Fretwell, Radiohead, Richard Ashcroft, The Thrills, Supergrass, Air, Doves, Blur, José González, Katie Melua, Eva Cassidy, Paul McCartney And Wings, Suzanne Vega, Crowded House, Oasis, The Kooks, Turin Brakes, Kings Of Convenience, Norah Jones, Joss Stone, Donavon Frankenreiter, Bernard Fanning, Matt Costa & R.E.M.
Easy on the ear & easy on the pocket too with 43 great tracks over the 2 discs, The Acoustic Album is a belter.
