A Tiny 2020 “Best-Of” List
2020 has been a bit of a mixed bag in terms of new music. There were a few exciting re-issues, but not so many new releases. Kylie Ruled!
Kylie Minogue “Disco” (2020)
Kylie Minogue's first self-produced album is an absolutely essential slice of pop joy!
INXS “Kick” (1987)
INXS's classic 1987 album "Kick" is a must-have album that still sounds fresh well into the 21st century. Turn it up.
Iron Butterfly – Live at the Galaxy, 1967 (2014)
Don't waste your time on this dreadful live album that was probably released without the band's permission.
