As is now tradition, here's my list of the 50 "best" albums of 2017 to close out the year. As always, don't take this as an objectively ranked list, these are just my personal favourites. Feel free to share some of your favourites with me, I'd love to know what you guys have been listening to for the past 12 months. Thanks for a great year and your persistence in never letting this blog die. I hope you have a good end of year, and I'll see you in 2018.
