I asked the main actors of this here blog (mostly musicians, of course, but also friends, family, support-givers…) to provide me with a list (5 to 20 albums) of their favorite records of the year.
The results are slowly coming in. There are surprises, resemblances, similarities, incongruous choices… I’ve left the responses intact, exactly as I received them, along with my friends’ comments. So here goes:
Youmna Saba: designer, musician
“Here is the list of this year’s albums that I think are worth mentioning, in no particular order.”
Fleet Foxes: Fleet Foxes
Elbow: The Seldom Seen Kid
Rima Khsheish: Falak
Department of Eagles: In Ear Park
MGMT: Oracular Spectacular
Bon Iver: For Emma, Forever Ago
“Voila!”
