John Handy - live at Yoshi’s”. Nice mix of virtuoso playing and some accessible stuff that will keep anyone interested. ‘Carnival’ is a great intro to him as it’s so damn cheerful!
Bonnie Raitt - Road Tested - Tidal - some excellent singing and playing on this one with a great collection of songs including Richard Thompson’s Dimming of the Day, John Hiatt’s Thing Called Love and John Prine’s Angel from Montgomery.
There’s a lot to be said for some performers recognising that they are better interpreters than writers...
Elvis Costello - National Ransom - cd rip. Produced by T Bone Burnett and featuring a good collection of songs with interesting and melodic arrangements. He does love words doesn’t he?
