Today is Johnny Cash's 'American collection'. Shivers down spine stuff.
Tomorrow will be either Del Shannon (all-time favourite along with Stringbean) or Bowie.
But to address your idea for music from the last 3 years that has found favour, I have to go with Sam Fender. Amazed when I learned this guy was Brit and not Yank. Even more amazed that he's a North Shields lad. I love the Geordies.
Try his song 'Dead Boys' on You Tube. It's about young men committing suicide. What a haunting video. A super song with great lyrics but the CD will be welcomed into my collection this week and no one will touch it apart from me and the packer.
