Best of 2017: Albums
Here's a bunch of round slabs of music I enjoyed very much the past twelve months. 2017 produced tunes from old favorites, a few new faces, and a couple of reissues. There's actually one or two albums that could be considered metal so that's a bit of change for me. Somehow artists keep making creative stuff in this zany world we now live in.
As always any album had to be released in the calendar year and I had to listen to it a lot. The only exception is the Viki Victoria record that came out at the very end of 2016. I figured it deserved to be on the list for this year because it would slip though the cracks otherwise. And if you are one of those types who needs a definitive album of the year, then that honor goes to Vanishing Light by C. Lavender on Hot Releases.
The list goes band/album/label for those with questions of that nature.
