Well, it’s that time of year where I get to share which albums made the largest impact in my musical enjoyment during 2017. There were so many new releases and fitting my favorites into a specific number, as well as ranking them, is no easy task. You have to leave some out that were part of your everyday listening as well as include some that may not have spent as much time in your playlist but were such impactful albums. Of course most have already released their lists by now but I like to give an extra few weeks to soak in some of those later releases to see if they just might may the cut. So without further ado I present you with my 20 favorite releases from 2017, along with 2 tracks from each that I love to crank up.
