    I clearly don't listen to enough new music, I don't think I could do a top 5 of 2023 releases! I still got a load of new, to me, CDs last year though ... Anyway, happy new year and all the best for 2024.

    Great list Phil! Another couple of albums which came out this year which are absolute must-hears are Rival Sons' "Darkfighter" and "Lightbringer". They are well worth checking out when you are able. I wish you a very happy 2024!

    THis year i thought was a very good year for music in general, there was 2 new bands that came along and ended up being my no2 and no3 album of the year, they were NOSPUN and TEMIC, both in the progmetal department but for debuts were excellent, my no1 was a new band for me but had made 4 other albums, that band is called MOON SAFARI and the album is called HIMLABACKEN VOL2, check out the video for BETWEEN THE DEVIL AND ME and you will get a taste of this BRILLIANT, MELODIC AND THE BEST VOCALS on any album you will EVER hear, my no1 rock album was the ROLLLING STONES, this new album was my 1st ever listen to a stones album, i was very impressed and now have become a fan, better late than never, thanks for all the posts this year and have a great musical year.

    At last! A list of 2023 albums where I want to listen to most of them. I know three well, so that leaves 23 to go.
    I have promised to work my way through Bob Dylan albums I haven't heard, so let's hope there aren't many new albums released in 2024, although I am thoroughly impatient for Ian Hunter's 'Defiance Part II.'
    Thanks, Phil. Great show!

    Great show! Plenty of stuff to check out. I'm always on the lookout for music with positivity in message or vibe. Two albums that did that strongly for me this year were Lightbringer from Rival Sons and Wrong Side of Paradise from Black Star Riders. Darkfighter from Rival Sons is also excellent. Would love to see a show somewhere on best positivity albums. Great for the winter doldrums and especially the spring. Below are my tops for 2023.

    That Sendelica album that you recommended is great. Nice way to start 2024! I will be busy discovering this band's music throughout the year. Actually, I started the year by reading about the attempted ban by the musician's union on synthesizers and drum machines on Robert Moog's birthday in 1982. Imagine music without these technological wonders.

    Great list, Soen was my number 3, with a couple of UK bands pipping them to the post, first being Nothing But Thieves with Dead Club City, they just seem to improve on each album, when was the last time a UK rock band reached number 1 in the album chart, with Gunship with Unicorn at number 2, both groups from different genres but both a bit of fresh air, worth investigating Phil, take care

Another choice for me would definitely be i/o by Peter Gabriel which I'm surprised wasn't in your top 25... or did I miss it? Anyway, a very happy and healthy New Year to you Phil and thanks for all you do musically and spiritually.

    I have to congratulate you on selecting Metallica and Soen. Metallica because they get such a negative reaction to all they do and I personally believe they have released a classic album with 72 Seasons. Soen because I never hear anything about them on other channels. Imperial was my favourite album of 2021 and Memorial is almost as good. Nice one Phil.
