Whistle while you work

Well, that's Christmas dealt with. A great range of recommendations, as ever. Thanks to all the regulars who make this column tick every week. Hopefully readers will have discovered as much good music over the last 15 weeks as I have.

There will be no column next week because I'm sure you all have better things to do, but it will return on January 6 with the subject of work. Don't think about it until after Christmas, for God's sake, but when reality starts biting again, tell us your favourite songs about the daily grind. Any kind of occupation counts - police officers, office workers, repairmen, shop assistants - except, of course, being a musician, which isn't a proper job at all.

I'll be away that week, so this blog will be in the knowledgable hands of Laura Barton. The deadline for recommendations is 6pm Monday January 2. Play nice.
