The Top 25 Albums of 2020 (So Far)
So here’s the deal: I have, in fact, been working on and planning to share new reviews…but I contracted the dreaded writer’s block. The good news is that they are coming very soon! However, I couldn’t delay the third quarter installment of the year’s top albums even though I really wanted to get those reviews out there first. You will see some new, excellent entries on this list, and although I will post their corresponding write-ups in the coming weeks, this list may be a little bit of a spoiler. No matter — September has ended and there are three months left in the year, so regardless, it’s time to reveal my revised list — the last update before the finale at the end of December. Enjoy what I consider to be the top twenty-five albums of 2020:
I’m loving how wonderful, surprising, and excellent this year of music has been — it’s been its best year in quite a while. Forty albums down, I’m excited to listen to many more before this tumultuous year finally ends. I hope this list intrigues you enough that you give your ears something new to consume. I’ll see you in December with the best of 2020!
