Alabama Shakes ‘Boys and Girls’ Album Review

None of the Boys and Girls album cuts lack for energy or intensity. Even the quiet moments are palpable beauties.

Chuck Prophet is a superb songwriter and a fine guitarist. He is backed by a cracking band.

First Aid Kit’s ‘The Lion’s Roar’ is one of the most beautiful contemporary folk records made in recent years.

Tom Waits has released a stupefyingly great record in Bad As Me, proving once and for all that Tom, we hardly knew ye.

Majestic and dense, Circuital is a daring and powerful mix of rock, country and anthemic ballads from My Morning Jacket.

Paul Simon has crafted his finest album in many years with his new release So Beautiful or So What.
