I just discovered this album (and them, by extension), I was very pleasantly surprised.

I went through most of my Christmas presents today, and so it was:

James Taylor: JT
James Taylor: Flag
James Taylor: Dad Loves His Work
James Taylor: That's Why I'm Here
James Taylor: Never Die Young
Jamiroquai: Automaton

But somehow I carry on, heading for the top
A physical absurdity, a tremendous mental game
Helping me understand exactly who I am"

Catching up on some of the many new releases I missed this year.

Do you read Sutter Cane?

Well that's not a coincidence as I was using that thread to remind me of what actually came out this year as I haven't been keeping track at all lol.

I was a fan of Sumerlands first album and I loved this one as well. The new vocalist fits perfectly and the album is a lot of fun.

Loud Arriver was a solid album. Love the production on the instruments but I wish the vocals were bumped up more in the mix.

A-Z was pretty much what I expected. Ray Alder is one of my favorite vocalists and I haven't disliked an album with him on it yet.

I have similar feelings...loved Sumerlands' debut, and I felt that this one, while somewhat different, was pretty much as good. Agreed on the vocalist.

Yep, A-Z sounded more or less as expected, but I have to say the quality of the songwriting itself went beyond my expectations. Excellent stuff.

Think if High n Dry had Pyromania's production...
This album sits right between those two.

Top three TAComendations are Black Pants Magic, The Tiger, and Aurora.

A Walk Of Titans could've come right off of Pyromania.

The only skippable track is Hungry For Your Heart (WTF?  :lol)

Big Big Train - Summer Shall Not Fade: Live At Loreley

Truly my band of the year.

"So many words left unsaid
So many deeds left undone
So many tales without an end
The transit of Venus across the sun"
Zydar is my new hero.  I just laughed so hard I nearly shat.

Miss you Mom  :heart This album is one of my favorite albums ever. When it came out in 1980, when I was 10, my mother used to play this at home and dance around the living room (I can still see it) and I loved every song. I have been playing this all day thinking of her. I lost her this past Mother's Day and this is my first Holiday season without parents and its extremely difficult.  :heart

I'm sorry to hear about the passing but I'm happy that this album can be a comfort. Is that Barry Gibb btw?

Thank you kindly ❤. Yes, Barry wrote most of the songs with Robin. A truly epic album. Check out the last tune "Make It Like A Memory", the dynamics and instrumentation are impressive! Beautiful guitar solo too.
