It's January 2019....what better way to start anew year than to look in the rear view mirror.
Welcome to episode 121 of Love That Album.
The "favourite first time listens of the year" episode is an annual tradition at LTA, but normally recorded and released in December. As Booker T and the MGs once put it, time was tight so I delayed it to this month.
I am excited to present for his first full show my son, Max Bursztynski. He did do a short segment on the year end favourites episode in 2014, but this time around, it's both of us going head-to-head for the entire episode to talk about the albums we heard for the first time in the previous calendar year. These are albums that moved or challenged us or just made us say...."yeah, that's cool". Max is eloquent and passionate about his picks. There will be something in our choices you will hopefully want to search out for yourselves.
Also, we have some audio feedback from my bandmate Dan Kerr. He's passionate about singer-songwriters and has picked some terrific albums to tell you about that excited him from last year. Dan has a great music discussion group called The Listening Party. Join it, and share your favourite music discoveries.
