Probably my favourite record of the year, so far. Any other fans of Mark Kozelek here?

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
