Almost every year I select a handful of albums that were my personal favorites from the previous year. I don't claim these are objectively the "best," they're just the ones I liked. My tastes run toward roots rock, Americana, neo-soul, alt country, singer-songwriters, folky stuff, etc. I'm kind of a sucker for retro sounds. I undertake this exercise primarily to help me remember music I heard and enjoyed, but a few of my friends have gotten hooked, so I keep sharing it. Thanks for having a look!
