Oliver,
Have you heard the Dylan / Cash sessions? Have not been able to track them down yet, but a lot of positive noise out there in cyberspace.

I was sure you would be listning to Brilliant Corners before starting the Dylan set

Going to work my way through choices from the Observer and Sunday Times Best of 2008 lists today. To be honest, not many of their choices make it into my personal top 10 this year but maybe I'll change my mind.
First up - Laura Marling - Observer No 18.

Best of my recent purchases, an interesting blend of jazz with Indian themes. Better than the similarly themed Rahman disc (Where Rivers Meet), although Idris Rahman plays on this as well.

Then it must be very good, as I think the Rahman disc Where Rivers Meet is excellent

Observer 2008 Top 50, number 13 and deservedly so. Maybe it should be higher. Wonderful music.
