Golf's verdict: Talented chap Mr Costello, much like his namesake. This is another gem, demonstrating once again that I have perhaps previously been a bit cloth-eared to his talents.
Maire's verdict: I really enjoyed this album. Need to re-listen as a potential Hidden Gem.
Album 731/1031

Golf's verdict: HIDDEN GEM! Mad as cheese and utterly irresistable. Bringing sea-shanties to the masses. Somebody has got to.
Maire's verdict: HIDDEN GEM! Absolutely loved the album. Can't believe it's taken me so long to realise the genius that is Kate Bush.
