101-200, The Waiting Room (Or The Obligatory Next Ton) of Dread by 
Jimmy Dread 
Yep, I've caved in to doing a chart with another 100 LPs that would otherwise be in the all-time 100 were it not for the fact that there's 100 albums better. Not that there's much wrong with any of these picks - they're all zingers (and on any given day one of the first 50 in this list could easily sneak into the 100 when one of the incumbents has their back turned). Be amazed as some albums that you're likely sick to death of co-exist with obscure shit from Brazil or Jamaica. Enjoy it whilst it lasts, as being the pinickity git I am I'll probably delete this chart in a fit of rage when my son decides to run off with my DAC again. Out of all the the charts of mine on here, this is probably the most likely to fluctuate, and will more likely reflect my current listening habits than even my overall 100 (of which a few of these LPs will doubtlessly make in due time). Comments to follow where there are none when I can be arsed, plunder it for recs all you like... Jimmy, May 2021

PICK - The Blacksmith; FIRST HEARD: mid 00s folk phase. SS were one of those acts that for years and years I'd always saw as the preserve of the real-ale drinking bearded weirdo in the corner of my local pub. They often had their own odour and hung out at Record Fairs giving the church hall or whatever a rather distinctive musty smell. Strip this away though and I can say, hand on pounding heart, that this is unquestionably the most beautiful British album I own - trad folk songs delivered with warmth and pathos, just like sitting round a roaring open fire in the Cotswolds.

PICK - Decent Days and Nights; FIRST HEARD: Collectors Records, Guildford c.2004. Bought this on promo which instantly made it feel all-the-more special, got me into a band (saw an ad in same shop advertising for bassist with Futureheads fixation - shame they turned out to be toss) and still gives me a spring in my step whenever I hear it.

PICK - Eye Of Danger; FIRST HEARD: Off back of Soul Jazz' "Studio One Rockers" compilation. Back when I was still living at home, I used to put this LP on which for no apparent reason caused my Mum to come in my room without knocking and start dancing. According to legend (or so she said) such antics got her invited back to Top of the Pops in the 60s on 3 consecutive weeks to 'get her groove on'. I hope she didn't let Jimmy Savile anywhere close.
