  I'm yet to hear most of his work, but I do like what I've heard from both Sun Kil Moon and Red House Painters. I really like 'Perils from the Sea' from last year too. I haven't got round to listening to 'Benji' properly yet but have been meaning to since I heard a lot of it in a record shop a few months ago - sounded great!

  Yeah, I'm kinda new-ish to his music too. Had always liked individual tracks by RHP but never really searched out their albums until very recently. 'Benji' is superb - really dark and death obsessed but oddly amusing too.

  I was in a shoe shop when I heard a brilliant record playing – so good that I asked the manager who it was. I'd never heard of them, but found out that the track was Salvador Sanchez from Ghosts Of The Great Highway. Unfortunately, I discovered that this track is totally unlike anything else on the album and could almost have been a different band altogether. I downloaded Salvador Sanchez but passed on the rest.

  Rollercoaster is essential. I would add the Bridge album, Ocean Beach and Down Colorful Hill
  
  ...but of course that's just the early stuff.

  'Micheline' is incredible
