Favourite albums of 2016

[Confused]

I thought this would be an interesting thread and I have listened to a few of the albums named in here.

May even purchase the Melody Gardot album as love it.  Also like the Glass Animals album and Emily Loizeu.

@badoun your tastes are similar to mine I think

To those of you who only chose one or two is this because you no longer buy/ listen to new albums?
Also going to check out Blackstar again. Loved early Bowie as was brought up on him and last year I rebought the Ziggy Stardust album as my vinyl perished.

Keep the posts coming please

I am one of those that only picked one.  I actually bought a lot of albums in 2016, but only two of these was actually released in 2016, as far as I can remember.

I too 'grew up' on Bowie, I think a case of having older brothers, so I can recall Bowie being played in the house as part of my very earliest memories.  I've also got a copy of Aladdin Sane, Hunky Dory and others on compact cassette somewhere, much original vinyl, I could go on.  In fact I will go on, my collection starts with an original 1969 7" copy of 'A Space Oddity'.  This is mono and on the Phillips record label.

A notice that a couple of others have mentioned Radiohead's 'A Moon Shaped Pool', this is one other release I bought in 2016 that was actually released in 2016) but to be honest I didn't like it much!  Although seeing it listed by others here has inspired me to give it another listen over the Christmas break, maybe it will grow on me, you never know.  (or I might just listen to 'The Bends' again instead)

But having said all that, in my case once I had listed Bowies 'Blackstar', quite frankly that was it for me, it would not have felt right to list anything else.
