Some Awe's Top Ten, 2014




Here’s a few I missed [or have only recently been released] from my 'preliminaries' long list, and then a top ten:

D'Angelo & The Vanguard - Black Messiah
Magic Brother - I Don't Mind
Syd Arthur - A Monstrous Psychedelic Bubble Amorphous Androgynous Remixes

Top Ten 2014

The Cloud Cuckoo Collective - From Omaha to Ottery
Had to be. Thanks everyone, especially PP and MW, and to MP and KB and all the others. Great production PP.
The Delines- Colfax
Because of the genius of Vlautin’s storytelling, and soundscapes that embrace and enhance. Oh yeah, I also got to interview him....
Nils Petter Molvær – Swicht
Pedal steel and jazz, what a beautiful combination
Ryan Adams - Ryan Adams
Because he can and does
Chris Smither - Still On the Levee
As so often with my choices, because of legendary status, and continuing, here with refashioned versions
London Grammar - Hey Now
For her vocals
Rival Sons - Great Western Valkyrie
Because of those who still rock anew so strong
Blues Pills - Blues Pills
Ditto
Joe Bonamassa - Different Shades Of Blue
It would be too easy just to expect and therefore accept – it needs recognising
Ty Curtis - Water Under The Bridge
For being less well known but so much better than those who are
