There are about 9 tracks here that I would be happy going through. This is about when I discovered the charts and this list includes the first single I actually bought for myself.

 

Am struggling to find things to downvote

On the contrary, I think most of them are good (and some are great).

After Clout and BA Robertson (and maybe Racey) struggling to find stuff to downvote.
