It's Old British Men week once again; two of my all time favorite OBMs have brand new albums out. The new Billy Bragg - "Mr. Love And Justice" is kind of lame and there's not really much to say about it. The new Elvis Costello is fairly interesting if only for the fact that it's a collaboration with Jenny Lewis which they recorded in one week in February and it's already out. That's the way music used to be and never is anymore. I don't know yet if it's a great album but it definitely doesn't suck. (It's better than "The River In Reverse".)

Since I haven't posted a list in a while, these are my favorites of 2008 so far:

1. The Ditty Bops - Summer Rain
2. Joe Jackson - Rain
3. The Incredible Vickers Brothers - Gallimaufry
4. Kate Rusby - Awkward Annie
5. Elvis Costello - Momofuku
6. She & Him - Volume 1
7. The General Store - Mountain Rescue
8. Roger Manning - Catnip Dynamite
9. Billy Bragg - Mr. Love & Justice
10. The Bravery - The Sun & The Moon
