10 years ago today we were celebrating the release of this amazing album, as well as Bowie's 69th birthday. Two days later he passed away. It's still a masterpiece.

Second album from Wishbone Ash. My best guess is this is a 1973 or 1974 reissue that has the black MCA labels but no gatefold.

This double LP was released in 1974 originally with the band's 1968 comp "Magic Bud" and the 1966 US version of "My Generation." This is a 1980 reissue of that set.

Got this one for a dollar recently. Cover has a big piece cut out of it and vinyl is very crackly. Original 1969 Pitman pressing though.

Grant Green's guitar driven jazz with killer piano and sax. Featuring Joe Henderson, James Spaulding, Bob Cranshaw, Elvin Jones, and the legendary McCoy Tyner. Recorded in 1964.

I found a used copy of this one recently. First album without Malcolm Young, although he has songwriting credits on here.

Canadian version of AC/DC Live, part the gold vinyl AC/DC reissues that were exclusive to Walmart here in the states but exclusive to Sunrise Records in Canada.

1 - The Last Dinner Party - From The Pyre.
An almost perfect blend of baroque pop and glam rock. It's theatrical, beautiful, and kicks a lot of arse all at the same time. It has to be my number one favorite album of 2025.

2 - Tyler Childers - Snipe Hunter.
Some of his best songwriting and most ferocious vocal performances are on this album. This may actually be my favorite Tyler record, it's THAT good.

3 - S.G. Goodman - Planting By The Signs.
Country, folk, rock, S.G. does it all and does it well. Her storytelling alone makes this an AOTY contender.

4 - Bonnie "Prince" Billy - The Purple Bird.
Will Oldham comes through with another amazing album. Great collection of folk and country tunes with features from Tommy Prine and John Anderson.

5 - Turnstile - Never Enough.
Shoegazey hardcore punk and post-hardcore. Overall it's kind of a feelgood release, rather than an angry one, but still enough energy you can mosh to.

6 - Pulp - More.
What a comeback! Their first album in 24 years and maybe my favorite since Different Class.

7 - Laufey - A Matter Of Time.
Third full length studio album from Icelandic singer/songwriter Laufey. Modern pop with nostalgic and theatrical elements of Mid-20th Century Pop, Jazz, Classical and Bossa Nova.

8 - Jeff Tweedy - Twilight Override.
Normally I prefer short sweet albums but this triple LP is Tweedy's best crop of songs in a while, plus he gets to record it with his kids.

9 - Jason Isbell - Foxes In The Snow.
This album was a pretty drastic departure from his southern rock fueled 400 Unit albums; this one is just Isbell - his voice and his guitar. Very different, but I love it.

10 - Olivia Dean - The Art Of Loving.
Short and sweet but a very solid pop record with R&B and neo-soul vibes. It sounds like it wouldn't be out of place if it was released in the 70s or 80s.

12 - Panopticon - Laurentian Blue.
A non-metal album by one of North America's finest metal musicians, Austin Lunn. No ties to black metsl this time, just straight up folk, country, and bluegrass.

13 - Amanda Shires - Nobody's Girl.
She navigates dark subject matter with despair, anger, and humor which gives the album a linear feel and ends with a note of optimism.

14 - My Morning Jacket - Is
MMJ teaming up with Brendan O'Brien and it results in their most concise and consistent work in years if not decades.

15 - Brandi Carlile & Elton John - Who Believes In Angels?
One of my favorite collaborative efforts in years. Brandi and Elton sound great together, not to mention Brandi and Bernie's excellent songwriting.

16 - The Mountain Goats - Through This Fire Across From Peter Balkan.
This album had no business being as exciting as it is. Like musical theater and even features guest vocals by Lin-Manuel Miranda.

17 - Wet Leg - Moisturizer
A great follow up to their debut. It's their first album as a full five piece band which helps expand their sound.
