 | Rabbit Fur Coat by Jenny Lewis with the Watson Twins
Buy new: £6.48 / Used from: £4.76 Infinitely listenable, country-tinged indie. Lewis's voice is gorgeous, and the title-track is simply wonderful
|
 | Shine by Joni Mitchell
Buy new: £4.98 / Used from: £3.93 You can't compare it to her 70s heyday where she was nigh-on untouchable. However, this is intelligent, elegant, considered and worth your money nevertheless.
|
 | Magic by Bruce Springsteen
Buy new: £4.98 / Used from: £2.99 A very solid, mature release. Not the biggest fan of Springsteen in the world, but I enjoyed this one
|
 | Volta by Bjork
Buy new: £8.98 / Used from: £6.11 I absolutely love Bjork's four first proper studio albums, but I haven't been convinced by her more recent stuff. This is also not up to her best; has its moments, though.
|
 | White Chalk by PJ Harvey
Buy new: £4.98 / Used from: £5.03 Incredible album, this. Another reinvention by one of the most consistently exciting musicians currently working. Can't get enough of it!
|
 | Running on Empty: Remastered by Jackson Browne
Buy new: £2.41 / Used from: £2.20 Recently discovered this. Will have to buy more of this guy's stuff; a little bit too Americana at points, but his talent is undeniable. Why isn't he mentioned in the same breath as James Taylor??
|
 | Release the Stars by Rufus Wainwright
Buy new: £4.98 / Used from: £1.96 Not as good as the Want albums, but then, what is? Addictive and overblown, just how I like it
|
 | 1972 by Josh Rouse
Buy new: £7.71 / Used from: £5.10 Saw this guy in concert recently again. Very solid, 70s-esque folk-pop-rock. An album to put on in the background and sing along absent-mindedly to.

![The Man Comes Around [Bonus Tracks]](http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/31LaLwvWk%2BL._SL75_.jpg) | The Man Comes Around [Bonus Tracks] by Johnny Cash
Buy new: £4.98 / Used from: £3.62 Need to get more Johnny Cash. He adds a lot of gravitas and personality to each of these tracks
|
 | A Ghost Is Born: Special Limited Edition by Wilco
Buy new: £7.98 / Used from: £4.98 Not completely sold on this band. A couple of these songs are simply pretentious. Like an American alt-country/alt-folk rock version of Radiohead. Interesting, though, if you like that kind of thing
|
 | In Rainbows by Radiohead
Buy new: £7.98 / Used from: £6.78 And now, Radiohead. Works more as an album than anything I've heard this year. Not easy to pick out stand-out tracks because of this, although "Nude" is stunning. A welcome return.
