My two picks.
Aimee Mann...I Should Have Known.
Saw her perform the above and 4th of July on the Danny Baker chat show on bbc1.
Loved both and got the Whatever cd on the strength of that tv appearance.
Been a fan since.
The Handsome Family...Weightless Again.
A free cd Sounds of the New West from Uncut magazine had this on it.
Again I have been a fan ever since.
I had it between between you and Rob for the Aimee Mann track and, given you'd mentioned quite her a few times, I overthought it and went for Rob trying to frame you.
I miss the days of buying physical magazines which would have a sampler CD or for the FOCs a bit of flimsy plastic. Pre the streaming algorithms it was a great way to be introduced to stuff and unlike the algorithms they were often intelligently and thoughtfully curated by the magazines in question.
