The First Record Played in 2017


At this time of the year I often think that I should try and keep a log of all the records  played in the year.
I never do safe in the knowledge that I would give up after about a week.

If I was to do so for 2017 the first record would be Catching a Tiger by Lissie followed swiftly by Traces  from Karine Polwart, If Wishes Were Horses by Kris Drever and Grit by Martyn Bennett.

Not a bad way to kick start the year I'm sure you'll agree

Lissie - Bully

Lissie - Little Lovin'

  1. A nice little album I actually found in a charity shop a couple of years bzck (Lissie). Should dig that out and give it another spin.

    1. I'm expecting something new tomorrow, not just a re-post of this.

  3. Bully - one of the best tracks of the last ten years. Simply brilliant.

  4. I don't recall bumping to Lissie or her music before today, which is clearly a sizeable oversight on my part. Both of these tunes are great, but 'Bully' is particularly wonderful. Is all her stuff this good?

    1. I'm only familiar with this album Swede which is very good indeed

    2. I posted this track a couple years back, and more recently posted this:

      The first album is the best by far, the others have been patchy, but there's some good stuff on them nonetheless.
