My votes are going to these artists:

- Dhafer Youssef - Soupir Eternel
- M. Ward - Chinese Translation
- Vesa-Matti Loiri - Sielun Pohjalla

All three unknown to me and very good. Otherwise, Talk Talk's After the Flood would definitely be in here too.

Thank you for the Dhafer vote.  I can't fault anything he's put out, now that I've had a chance to dig deeply there.

1. Alice Coltrane - Journey In Satchidananda / I used to listen to quite a lot of Alice & John Coltrane, Pharaoh Sanders back in the day but not so much anymore. This took me back to 15-20 years ago when things were better and/or worse. 

2. Donovan - Nirvana / I know Donovan of course, but never really listened to him. If the songs posted here are any indicator, I'll need to fix that. 

3. M. Ward - Chinese Translation / The above choices were easy, but third position took some consideration. I ended up with this because of its good laid back feel.

Clap
Sutras is full of excellent songs and it is beautiful as a whole.

Dhafer Youssef is the winner here (I really wasn't aware that this was Nicky's nomination once more when I decided that this is great Clap), then Alternative Quartet (can't go wrong with post rock for me), and A Winged Victory for the Sullen. Alice Coltrane would've been up there but I knew that one.

Thank you, Christian!  These were all pretty compelling to me, as always, so hard to choose my favourites amongst them.  I loved going farther into Dhafer Youssef's catalogue, what a fine blending of styles and stellar musicians.  Loved the live versions in particular.

Actually the Godfathers had a hit single there so it may be known by as many people, therefore my nomination is Talk Talk - After the Flood. Still grateful for this poll theme to have reminded me of that cool Godfathers single that had been off my radar for 20 years or so.

I know I love Spirit of Eden as much as you love Laughing Stock.

In any case, they are both absolute masterpieces. You may prefer this and I may prefer that.

After the flood is my firrst choice for the podium.

Having announced my votes, I forgot to effectively cast them. That's done now...
