Best of 2025
My albums of the year, not necessarily released in 2025, but discovered in 2025.
-
Slash
My best thrift store find as of November '25, this album caught my eye because Slash can shred and Myles Kennedy rocks. And this album provides exactly this!
-
Derek & The Dominos
Finally seriously listening to Eric Clapton… and I understand why so many like his music.
-
J.J. Cale
Late to the party (again again), but J.J. Cale has the blues and, naturally, picks up a guitar and recorded a fantastic album. Shoutout to my dad for introducing me to J.J. Cale.
-
Dire Straits
Late to the party on this one (again). Shoutout to my friend for recommending Dire Straits to me a year ago—sorry it took so long to take your recommendation to heart!
-
Led Zeppelin
Late to the party. I know. Blues covers, folk covers, and originals—this album has it all! My, my, my, I'm so happy…
-
Larkin Poe
These women rock. Blessed to have discovered them on Slash's serpent festival tour and see them on the Bloom tour!
