SAULT, "Untitled (Black Is)"

Moses Boyd, "Dark Matter"

Nubya Garcia, "Source"
 
In this age of streaming I rarely listen to an album like I used to - which I know is a shame

I shall check out your recommendations
 
Big shout for the Eddie Chacon album Pleasure, Joy and Happiness - he was half of 90s chart botherers, Charles And Eddie. Fantastic album, soul for 2020, well worth checking out

Yeah I checked out that Eddie Chacon one - didn’t work the first time but went with it again. Slow burner for sure...
 
The superb Jeff The Fish has put together 2 shows featuring tracks from 2020.
One a 2 hour show for Soho Radio & the other a 5 hour spectacular.
Both on mixcloud, I can't do the link.
 
Also don't tend to listen to albums like I used to. A decent tune will usually point me in the right direction, in the streaming age....

BC Camplight - Shortly After Take Off
Working Men's Club - WMC
Billy No Mates - BNM

Honorary mentions for Sault (2 albums in 2020), Cornershop, Thundercat & Nadine Shah. And Weller's On Sunset was very decent.
 
1. The Airborne Toxic Event - Hollywood Park (Long overdue but a bloody masterpiece).
2. Nahko And Medicine For The People - Take Your Power Back
3. Gaz Brookfield - Lockdown

And an honourable mention for Millie Manders and the Shutup debut album, Telling Truths, Breaking Ties.
