ROBERT PLANT
Carry Fire (Nonesuch)
As one of rock musics founding fathers, it would be easy for Robert Plant to rest on his laurels. But the former Golden God, 69, is an intrepid soul and he continues to experiment on this eleventh solo album. Bearing the lines of a life well lived, his songs are dark yet elegant, ranging from a Moroccan-influenced title track to the tuneful folk of The May Queen, its titled pilfered from Led Zeppelin. Theres also a potent duet with Pretender Chrissie Hynde.>★★★★

SQUEEZE
The Knowledge (Love)
The Squeeze partnership of Chris Difford and Glenn Tilbrook is enjoying an Indian summer, and The Knowledge takes up from where 2015s pithy Cradle To The Grave left off. The band sing the praises of their native South London in the way that CSN&Y; once celebrated Southern California, while the songwriting duo, at turns cutting and compassionate, also take on gentrification, fanatical record collectors and the abuse of schoolboy footballers.>★★★

ST. VINCENT
Masseduction (Caroline)
If you want to know about my life, listen to this record, says Annie Clark aka St. Vincent of her fifth album, and the Texan is in confessional mode on New York, an ode to lost love, and the raw piano ballad Happy Birthday. A distinctive, if faintly precious, performer with a penchant for noisy guitar squalls, she also teams up with Fun songwriter Jack Antonoff, producer of Lordes Melodrama, to add greater accessibility to her jarring electro-pop.>★★★★

THE DARKNESS
Pinewood Smile (Cooking Vinyl)
The Darkness maintain their recent revival as frontman Justin Hawkins calls on new recruit Rufus Taylor, son of Queens Roger, to buttress his falsetto vocals with sturdy harmonies and drums. Tongues are firmly in cheek as Justin addresses commuter belt frustration on Southern Trains and the ethical conundrum of groupies on All The Pretty Girls. Lengthy solos get in the way of some decent songs, but Pinewood Smile should still leave devotees beaming.

JP COOPER
Raised Under Grey Skies (Island)
John Paul Cooper came to prominence as guest singer on Jonas Blues tropical house hit Perfect Strangers, but his own songs look more to blue-eyed soul and gospel. The title track is an affectionate account of his Manchester childhood. Other numbers are marred by some overcooked string and vocal arrangements, but a tender cameo by London grime star Stormzy, on Mommas Prayers, closes this debut on a high.

CARLA BRUNI
French Touch (Decca)
Far from a vanity project, Carla Brunis music career has now lasted for two decades, and this English-language covers collection is the former First Lady of Frances fifth album of chic, Gallic pop. Set to a refined, jazzy backdrop by producer David Foster, her slight, yet tuneful, voice has a certain je ne sais quoi, though her material is hit and miss. The Stones Miss You is stripped of its sneering menace, but The Clashs Jimmy Jazz gets a playful makeover.
