Album of the year

Jafant, Would you mind listing your favorites?

Winoguy, Love the Wood Brothers "The Muse".

One of the best records I have heard this year is Snarky Puppy's "Family Dinner".

Rush - Clockwork Angels

David Bowie ... The Next Day ... Hands down the best Rock album this year ... And I'm not a Bowie fanboy and listening mostly to classical and jazz the best recordings for me fall easily ito the classical realm.
But this record is something else; the way Bowie has structured the music with differnent layers and incorporating noise - brilliant. Sirius radio is currently running a 24/7 Bowie channel with frequent promos about his ongoing influence. One goes something like this: "Bowie - he's 1/3 glamour, 1/3 charm, 1/3 talent and 1/3 intelligence. " Gotta love it. He really is an alien.

Snarky Puppy - Ground Up
