Pleased to see Magenta - We Are Legend getting a fee mentions. Its easily their best album since Seven. I liked the new Roger Waters album a lot as well. Perhaps oddly I preferred The Second Brightest Star over Grimspound as far as the years Big Big Train release's go. Dave Kerzner's second album is a delight and almost as good a New World. My wish for 2018 is that more people take notice of him! 1) Magenta - We Are Legend 2) Dave Kerzner - Static 3) Big Big Train - The Second Brightest Star 4) Roger Waters - Is This The Life We Really Want? 5) Wobbler - From Silence To Nowhere 6) Kaipa - Children Of The Sounds 7) Amplifier - Trippin With Dr Faustus 8) Caligula's Horse - In Contact 9) Lifesigns - Cardington 10) Big Big Train - Grimspound |
