This time of year isn’t just the season of goodwill it’s also the season of “Best Of” lists and it’s part of the musical year that I love. 

It’s always good to know that things you like are also enjoyed by others but the real joy for me is gaining new insight into albums I’ve enjoyed or discovering albums that I have missed. 

My hope is that this episode will do some of that for you. 

As in previous years I am joined by my Podcast pal Steven Routledge and we both talk through our Top 10 albums. A new addition this year is that we also play a short clip from each of them. 

In this second part we count down from 5 to our respective Favourite Album of the Year. 

I'd love to hear what you think of these choices and particularly if there is new music you like. You can do that by emailing me at musictalkspod@outlook.com , I really look forward to hearing from you. 

I hope you had a great Christmas and best wishes for 2022. I look forward to it being another great year for music. 

If you just wabt to listen to the music Steven and I chose this playlist has all the tracks in the order we discussed them - enjoy
