Don’t mean to be snarky at all, everyone has a right to their tastes and opinions, but I don’t think the pickings in 2017 have been slim at all (and I have highlighted over 100 new albums on my playlists so far this year). Just over the past few weeks, an excellent Kevin Morby album, Dion Lunadon’s great new album, and Waxahatchee’s new album (it is on NPR first listen this week and releases officially next week). Jason Lowenstein just put out a very good album as well. Anyway, hope you don’t take this as too hostile, we can certainly agree to disagree.
