The October Playlist: Vol. 4
______________________
THIS must be one of the most packed and busy…
playlists since its inception. I have included some special songs for those who prefer the older, finer sounds. Stevie Wonder’s Songs in the Key of Life is forty years old – included a classic cut from that – while Kate Bush will release a three-disc live album, Before the Dawn (25th November). Radiohead have just been announced as the first headliners for Glastonbury 2017 – any excuse to play one of their songs. While there are some fantastic established artists sharing big news: let’s not forget the slew of brand-new acts unveiling new tracks and albums over the next couple of weeks. I have been busy collating the newborn singles and forthcoming-album-examples from the buffet of variety that is modern music.

Last week I gave you some Bob Dylan goodness: this week, Kate Bush, Radiohead and Stevie Wonder! The spoils of music and all the unpredictable joy it can bring is hard to define and impossible to refuse. It is pleasing finding so many new artists do well and provide some fantastic songs. Who knows what next week’s edition of The October Playlist will introduce?! It has already been a memorable and exceptional month of music so far, so we will have to wait and see.
