Where do you guy's find all this stuff...I thought I liked obscure stuff but you dudes are out there.lol. Oh and I'm aware of kexp being a great source for finding new stuff,Spotify also a good medium but it can throw up a lot of sh#t on the discover tab.

Yes, Spotify is a great source and as you say it does throw up some dross, but invariably some gems too.

Another source I use is Bandcamp.

Had a couple of listens and a bit disappointed with it compared to the last two albums.....also only 8 tracks...I won't be paying 22quid for it on vinyl....that's for sure.."this is all yours"still their best work to date imo.

"This is all yours" definitely way better, but do quite like their version of House of the rising sun.

'Folk Songs', a new album by Kronos Quartet, featuring collaborations with Natalie Merchant, Olivia Chaney, Rhiannon Giddens, and Sam Annion. Really nice arrangements, as you would expect from Kronos, and the singing throughout is lovely.

Also 'Close Ties', the latest from Rodney Crowell. Some very personal songwriting on this one, and very nicely communicated. It's so good I bought my Dad a copy as part of his birthday gift.
