Edith Piaf - The Voice of The Sparrow
Mrs Tiggi & I often listen to Desert Island Discs on BBC Radio 4, and Piaf's Non, Je ne Regrette Rien must be the most frequently chosen piece of music.
Plenty of rolled R's, but not too many accordions...

The Phenomenal Ruthie Foster Album
I saw her perform live last night, she is absolutely amazing, and very deserving of all the praise she has been receiving

The Revolution Will Not Be Televised
Some brilliant mellow jazz grooves amongst a few heavy duty finger pointing tracks.

Earth Wind & Fire - Greatest Hits
Impeccably crafted 70's Soul.
I've wanted an EWF Best of for years, but somehow never got around to doing the deed. Have now, and very glad about it.
Let's Groove is a fantastic piece of work...

Seasick Steve - I Started Out With Nothin & I Still Got Most of it Left
Came to prominence in the UK on the back of some well received TV appearances.
Basic country blues from a well-travelled US migrant to Blighty.
There may be many more worthy blues albums that should have a higher priority on my buy list, but this is excellent fun...

It's really funny to read this here this morning Tigger, as myself and another Aussie Blues musician mate, Ross Ward were having a great laugh about the title last only night. :wink:
