DCILYmusic: PL's 10 Favorite Albums of 2012.
*in alphabetical order
by Penny Lane
This has been an interesting year. Both in life and music. We are another year older but it remains to be seen if we have become wiser. At the end of every year I pretty much feel the same way...bring on the clean slate. Musically, is has been an equally interesting year. After perusing the many end of year lists, it is clear my list is a little off the beaten path. There were few similarities and at least one, maybe two, I am shocked appeared virtually no where else but on my list - though I have to admit I haven't read ALL the year end lists.
I think 2012 was a great year for music from newbies and old timers alike. I'm looking forward to not only a clean slate for life, but for music as well...
Cheers to a healthy and happy New Year!
