Rolling Stone's 65th greatest album of all time (489th in the 2020 list)
Superb collection of motown classics. Three full discs of some of the best soul and R&B songs ever made, plus the good old Christmas Gift album (which was also listed by Rolling Stone in its own right, so I listened to the same Xmas album twice in one week in June!). A diverse range of artists included, from Ben E King, Darlene Love, the Ronettes, Ike & Tina Turner and The Righteous Brothers.

Book Favorite

"The narrative around contemporary Africa’s cosmopolitan cities, exciting young people, vibrant artists, and rapidly evolving promise is, happily, becoming increasingly familiar to people around the globe. In this amazing book, David Adjaye looks at architectural space across the continent, dividing it into regions defined by climates and cultures, rather than artificially-derived national boundaries. Here the Maghreb, the desert, the Sahel, the forest, the Savanna and grasslands, and the mountains and high fields, are the defining features of how different architectures throughout Africa can be witnessed."

Book Favorite

"At one point, I was transcribing Shattuck’s journals—I don’t know what happened with that, but as a result I feel connected to this book, which explores early 20th century Paris through the artists of the time, in a strangely personal way. Also, it’s about a writer looking at art, which is what I was doing with the 20th Century Art Book, so there’s a thread of what I like about it in the artist’s perception of art—just curating, showing, explaining, unpacking, translating from abstraction."

Hello? Have you heard his songs yet?
Lewis Capaldi is one of those artists you can listen to at anytime. Cleaning the house? Listen to Lewis. Trying to fall asleep? Listen to Lewis. Making food? Lewis freaking Capaldi people! I'm obsessed with his music even though I've never been through a heartbreak and can't actually relate. This album is a proud and honoured member of my Spotify playlist and I'm probably going to use his songs in any major life events I have in the future!
