Fairfield Parlour - From Home To Home

Brian Wilson - Brian Wilson
Brian Wilson - Sweet Insanity (some great songs on this - a shame the bootleg was mastered from a promo cassette and the masters are supposedly missing)
Brian Wilson - I Just Wasn't Made For These Times
Brian Wilson & Van Dyke Parks - Orange Crate Art (2LP vinyl version - nice to have this on vinyl, but it doesn't quite work as a double as the tracks always sounded like they were sequenced as two 6-song sides, so the breaks now come in the wrong place. The 3 previously unreleased tracks that make up side four are pleasant but inessential)

Edith Frost - Calling Over Time
Edith Frost - Telescopic
Edith Frost - Wonder Wonder
Edith Frost - It's A Game (15 years since this last album came out and again I was wondering if this most unsung of singer-songwriters was ever going to release anything new, but then discovered she released a new EP back in May. The lead track is good, if rather morose and home-made, but she sounds more like her old self on the two traditional country songs that follow. Still on Drag City too)

Elton John - Regimental Sgt Zippo (the recently discovered unreleased 1968 album which made good use of the scores of tracks young Reg recorded on the sly after hours at Dick James studios, most of which are finally getting a proper release next month)
