Tom Jones recommended Sunny Side Up by Paolo Nutini in Music (curated)

 
Sunny Side Up by Paolo Nutini

Album Favorite

"I saw him on the Jay Leno show, and I thought 'wow, this is a good band'. It was like the Kings of Leon, southern rock, and he came on with that thing and I thought 'I wonder where this kid's from, he must be from the South somewhere'. And then when Jay Leno says 'that was great', Paolo says [adopts Scottish accent] 'thank you very much', and I thought 'he's fucking Scottish!' So it's great, but the album he did as well, that's great. I play that - there's so many great things on there. Again, it's fresh, it's different from other things, so I hope he can come up with more, because he writes as well. And Ethan John [Jones's producer for Spirit In The Room] produced the album, which I didn't know, when I heard the album. There's a jazz band thing, a traditional jazz band thing. 'Simple Things In Life', I like that, about going round to his mother's for tea, it's great. He paints a picture, you can see him do it."

Ross (3284 KP) created a post

In case anyone missed me reviewing each and every album of Rolling Stone's 2012 Greatest 500 Albums of All Time and spamming your feeds ... how?!
Well, I did it, from April 2020 to early July 2020 and discovered some new favourites (Funkadelic, Modern Lovers) and rediscovered some old loves (Elvis Costello, Radiohead). I loved it, and it saw me through the final unpleasant stages of losing my job, before I instead wrote a book (as yet un-edited and getting dusty) and got another job.
Sadly, in September, RS released a completely new list. Not like the 2012 list, which was just a minor shuffling of the 2003 one. This is a complete re-think. Luckily, some kindred spirit out there has compiled a spreadsheet comparing the three lists and it is very different.
Anyway, I am starting again with the new list and might just discover some more new loves (maybe some albums released post-2006!).
So you have been warned! Un-follow now, or face a certain spamming.
