If you buy only one album this Christmas...

...my advice is to make it Franz Ferdinand’s self-titled debut.

Or the Scissor Sisters’ self-titled debut. Dammit. If you buy only two albums this Christmas, make them Franz Ferdinand’s and the Scissor Sisters’ self-titled debuts.

And “Cast of Thousands” by Elbow. Bah! If you only buy three albums this Christmas, get yourself etc. etc. ad infinitum.

Is it just me, or has there been a lot of good music this year? Maybe not so much in the singles chart, but there’s some bloody good stuff out there on the long players.

And my recommendation to avoid? Snow Patrol. Totally overrated, IMHO. Samey, samey, same. Anyone else got recommendations that I really should be considering, both good and bad?

It's just you ;)
Kev,
 
Bah! One consolation for you - I'm well into Belle and Sebastian since you mentioned that gig in Newcastle. Great tip. :)
