This week on Around the World
Something different this week. We are just about halfway through the year, and I’m travelling this week (Salzburg, again) so I thought it would be good to listen back to some of the best of the year so far.
This is not a countdown. This is not a chart. This is neither scientific nor objective. This is just some of the albums I’ve enjoyed playing most this year. Some were released at the end of last year but gathered most or all their plays this year.
You might agree or disagree.
Let me know what I’ve missed and I’ll try to include in the final two shows of the year.
