Ooh, another local artiste! Can't believe I left him off the list, what an absolute legend. Very sad story.

Bon Iver is not this-listy by any stretch, but indeed a beautiful and
moving record.  I was intrigued on reading about it, and leery after
one review referenced early Bee Gees, in terms of the vocal harmonies.
 So I confess I downloaded first, and was sold.  It even made me a bit
weepy.  Bee Gees really misses the point, notwithstanding the
multi-part harmony and use of falsetto voice.  It has more in common
with Nick Drake and maybe Red House Painters, with a kind of enigmatic
but directly emotional appeal.
