It's that time of the year again and despite some issues keeping the channel alive, I am back to talk about my favorite albums of 2024. Due to those other priorities I have also reduced significantly the number of albums I checked out this year. Some years ago it used to be almost 150. This year was down to about a third of that. There were 5 albums that I missed during the year but due to analyzing other lists I gave those albums a chance and some of them made my top 20 others are in the honorable mentions. And I guess that's the most useful outcomes of those lists, to help people discover new music and albums that they may have missed. So I hope my list will also help some of you. I do have some very mainstream records in here, but also some personal favorites that I haven't seen in any lists and of course some gems to be discovered. So I hope you enjoy it! See you in 2025.
