Jake Bugg - Jake Bugg. The fact that he is just 18 beggars belief.

 

[Diamond Joe]

Marillion - Sounds That Can't Be Made

I'll go +1 for that one (although if I'm being honest it's actually the only 2012 release I've bought :shifty: )

[the record spot]

Nick Lowe's "The Old Magic" was a great album (as indeed was his gig at Edinburgh's Queens Hall) but my pick of the year is kind of a reissue for which I just bought not only the 4-disc set, but also the Bluray audio disc as well....and it's magnificent.
