Tom McRae

[Sam]

What are your thoughts on this guy?

His eponymous debut is essential. Just Like Blood is a mixed bag, some of it is brilliant and some is faintly tedious. The rest of the albums are also a bit hit and miss. But when he hits it's some of the best songwriting this side of Nick Drake.

My favourite tracks are:

2nd Law
Language of Fools
Sau Paulo Rain
You Only Disappear
Walking to Hawaii
One More Mile
Draw Down the Stars

But my all time favourite is this incredibily gorgeous song called Street Light:
