The September Playlist: Vol. 4
______________________
AFTER Skepta scooped the Mercury Prize…
there has been a lot of talk in the music world. It was a great triumph and defied the odds. Bowie won in spirit but when it came to guts and soul – there could only be one winner. Also, the likes of The Beatles are immortalised in film (Ron Howard’s new documentary, Eight Days a Week, is out soon) and Led Zeppelin have released their BBC Sessions album. Amy Winehouse was born on 14th September, 1983, so I had to include a song from her. Lots of great singles have come out – Thom Yorke has just released one today –and the promise of great new music to follow.

After the dust has settled on Skepta’s Mercury Prize win and all the great and bizarre songs have dropped – we look ahead to the coming weeks. Pixies will bring out Head Carrier while Devendra Banhart is preparing his new album. There are enough surprises in store and I will do my best to keep on top of all of them.
