Cream of 2021 - Winter session - Round 4 VOTING - closed MIDNIGHT Sunday Jan 30

[Val]

Round 4 is upon us so here's hoping another 10 of us can come up with a sure-fire winner for the best of 2021.

Go to it!

[Val]

In tech's words, this is a stonker of an album. Jason Isbell covers some of Georgia's finest. In this case, Drivin' N' Cryin'. This isn't country, this is R.O.C.K.!!

Looks like that's it then. While the votes were well spread, Spacepig's Snake Mountain Revival dominated from the off - so that's the gold taken care of with 16 votes. KJS's nom of Starry Eyed And Laughing was runner-up with 10 votes and Tim was third with 10 votes for Vanishing Twin. Well done gents!
