Click on the subject below to view my recommendations. In the old days, I would regularly make mixed tapes for friends in order to expose them to new music. In this time of MP3 players, it is more difficult to share in quite the same way, so I can only recommend some things I hope you will open your minds to, take a chance on and welcome into your home. (I intend to add to all of these pages as I get time; I have many worthy recommendations to make but not so many hours in the day to write about them!)

Apologies for the fact that I have neglected these pages so terribly. I have loads of new albums that I want to tell you about, but finding sufficient time to write about them is tricky if I want to do them justice and convince some of you to part with your precious time and money to delve into the world of a new artist (or one you'd long since given up on)! Please do check back....
