1 – Really Love – D’Angelo – As anticipation mounts for D’Angelo at the Apollo a week today, this is samba track is about as mainstream, as D gets nowadays and it is really pretty good, maybe as close to a complete song as we are ever gonna get. Definitely a pleaser, a soft clicking shuffle with, can it be? a melody – B+
2 – Tom Sawyer – Rush – Mean mean mean, and yes, apparently really does talk like that – B+
3 – Endless, Nameless – Nirvana – The hidden conclusion of Nevermind is a future past they never bothered with. Today, it sounds somewhat mainstream, at the time just too anticommercial to be bothered with – A
4 – Oh Me – Nirvana – Off one of the greatest albums of all time, it aches in beauty and rightness. Kurt’s voice is sprinkled with emotion – A
5 – Reprise – Natalie Prass – The best song off her new album is perfection in ways the rest of the album don’t go for, experimental to a degree, the violins are so odd, but the song is all the better for it. The horns wouldn’t be misplaced on a Burt Bacharah album – A
6 – Go Rest High On That Mountain – Vince Gill – Monumental death song forever connected to george Jones memorial now – A+
7 – All My Exes Live In Texas – George Strait, Vince Gill – Recommended to the Time Jumpers – B+
8 – On The Outskirts Of Town – The Time Jumpers – Jump – B+
9 – Top Shelf Drug – Ryan Bingham – The chorus is worthy of the Stones, unfortunately album only hits this height a coupla times – A
10 – Barcelona – George Ezra – On what turned out to be a fair enough but not what we hoped album, this is another hit in the works – A
