Tag Archives: Album of the Year 2014

Now that Christmas is over for another year, it’s about time that I got back on with my Album of the Year 2014 countdown. Despite my best efforts, a growing family and fatherly responsibilities have meant that I’m unlikely to complete the full list before the end of the Year. But hey-ho, it’s the thought  Continue Reading »

I’m closing in on the halfway mark of this year’s Album of the Year 2014 countdown. Thanks to everyone for the support, comments, shares and general banter so far.

So, if it’s alright with you all, I think I shall  Continue Reading »

Another day, another band and another cracking album. I’ve been really pleased and grateful for all of the comments and interaction over my choices so far; it gives me the impetus to continue, even though it is impossible to please all of the people all of the time. If you’ve missed my three choices to  Continue Reading »

Welcome to Day 3 of my Album of the Year 2014 countdown. I hope you’re enjoying my choices so far. As always, I’m sure there will be some surprise and disagreement with the albums that I pick but then that’s half the fun, hearing other people’s views and responding to them. So please keep the  Continue Reading »

Well, here we are again at year’s end. I can’t quite believe that another year has passed and that I’m embarking upon another end of year countdown. Much has happened over the past 12 months and in many ways I’m surprised that the blog is still going. External pressures and a growing family has meant  Continue Reading »
