Brave Sir Robin Posted September 24, 2020 Report Share Posted September 24, 2020 Well done MK, and thank you William Hill (and the forum hive mind for predicting his victory so confidently.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueDaze Posted September 24, 2020 Report Share Posted September 24, 2020 an absolute classic old school soul album..... I stood next to him in The Portland Arms in Cambridge 4 years ago as he politely watched some local youngsters thrash about on guitars before he came on... a lovely, humble bloke and wow what a voice.. I was so looking forward to his homecoming gig at Ally Pally Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SwedgeAntilles Posted September 24, 2020 Report Share Posted September 24, 2020 Delighted. I was a bit resistant to it because the Guardian went balls in on it calling it one of the albums of the decade but, ultimately, I have to concede they were right.

As an aside, do the kids not say balls out rather than in ? I’m trying to keep up with this stuff 🙂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I may have misheard though! Feel free to hit me up for any other Glasto or music related rumours. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leyrulion Posted September 24, 2020 Report Share Posted September 24, 2020 Did anyone manage to see him in 2019? Magical park stage set. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The highlight of a fantastic festival for me! Still holding onto Blackpool tickets, hoping it occurs at some point in 2021 and maybe he returns to Glastonbury too. Great album and well deserved win.

He was great, really good on West Holts in 2016 as well. His music's so good that I sometimes forget how fucking cool he is.

Leyrulion Posted September 25, 2020 Report Share Posted September 25, 2020 Honestly I'd knackered my leg that day and could barely walk. I Managed to stumble upon the park stage and this incredible music was coming out of it as the sun set. The fairy lights offset the music incredibly.

Skelts Posted September 26, 2020 Report Share Posted September 26, 2020 (edited) Such a good album, really happy for him. Check out Jools Holland from last night if you didn’t see it. I also came across this the other day 👍 Edited September 26, 2020 by Skelts Just saw this video posted above! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lighthouse Posted September 27, 2020 Report Share Posted September 27, 2020 Haven’t seen him live yet. Hope he’ll show up at Rock Werchter next year! 😊 This year their Barn stage had Big Thief - Kacey Musgraves - Richard Hawley - Michael Kiwanuka - Thom Yorke in one row. Excellent.

Other acts that weekend included The Strokes, Kendrick Lamar, Faith No More, Wilco, Beck, Liam, Anderson Paak, Pearl Jam, The Streets, Haim,... Really looking forward to 2021.

found home in 2009 Posted September 29, 2020 Report Share Posted September 29, 2020 I liked this album when it came out and listened to it a fair bit. Had kind of forgotten about it, but inspired by the Mercury win I put it on for first time in ages today. Totally deserved winner, had forgotten how good an album it was.
