Most mornings, the gang who writes this almost-daily newsletter gets on the phone for what's called The B.E.C., which stands for bacon, egg, and cheese, you buckos. The B.E.C. is a standing call we have to go over the day ahead but usually veers sideways after the first 10 seconds when someone will call out something they watched, saw, or listened to in the last 24 hours. This morning, someone dipped into the “what is your no-skip album” territory, and now we're forced to share those with everyone here, largely because we would not be disappointed to be left on a deserted island with any of them. Well, maybe one we'd kick off the island but the rest are our new Wilson. They are as follows:
Spirit: Stallion Of The Cimarron (Soundtrack) - Bryan Adams & Hans Zimmer
When The Pawn… - Fiona Apple
Brightside - The Lumineers
Through Being Cool - Saves The Day
They’re Only Chasing Safety - Underoath
Disintegration - The Cure
Dragon New Warm Mountain I Believe In You - Big Thief
Passage Du Desir - Johnny Blue Skies & Sturgill Simpson
Stop Making Sense - The Talking Heads
