Lukas Nelson & Promise of the Real - Turn Off The News (Build A Garden)
Got it after seeing them on the highlights from Glasto, but the album turned out not to be anything like I expected.
Very eclectic.

Just downloaded Mott the Hoople's first four albums on itunes, grouped together as Mental Train - the Island years. There are also some good (and not so good) variations and out-takes and live versions. 80-odd tracks and over 7 hours. Been in my element in the car listening to Ian Hunters voice that makes Joe Cocker sound like a choirboy. This was before All the Young Dudes when they were still a real rock band and before Mick Ralphs f***ked off to Bad Company. If you like raw rock with more than a hint of Dylanesque then listen to the first album. Also Waterlow from the Wildlife album is one of the most beautiful songs I have ever heard, still magical 40 odd years on.
