There was a lot of great music released this year. I truly had a tough time narrowing down my list to just 10. The top two haven't changed for me since they were released. They have been my go-to albums all year. I know that I'm probably forgetting a few here & there, but this is my list if I had to pick only 10. And yes, there is a tie for 10th place....because I couldn't leave either one of those albums off. Ha!

1. SHOVELS & ROPE - MANTICORE
2. THE SMILE - A LIGHT FOR ATTRACTING ATTENTION

These 2 have easily been listened to the most for me this year. Just truly amazing albums & they are very different from one another.

3. Spoon - Lucifer On The Sofa
4. Amanda Shires - Take It Like A Man
5. King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard - Omnium Gatherum
6. Kevin Morby - This Is A Photograph
7. Tyler Childers - Can I Take My Hounds To Heaven?
8. My Morning Jacket - Live Vol. 2
9. Drive By Truckers - Welcome To Club XIII

Others:
RHCP - Dream Canteen
Jack White - Fear Of The Dawn
Ben Harper - Bloodline Maintenance
Painted Shield - Painted Shield 2
Caamp - Lavender Days

What are yours?
I LOVE MUSIC.
