Like many people, most of my favourite music is from years ago.

However, I regularly listen to new albums and have found a lot to like this century.
Here's a list of my favourite albums from this year - I listen to rock/Americana/folk/blue/country most of the time, so it might seem skewed.

1. Letter To You - Bruce Springsteen
2. World On The Ground - Sarah Jarosz
3. Holy Smoke & Future Jokes - Blitzen Trapper
4. Nothing as the Ideal - All Them Witches
5. Blacktop Run - Sonny Landreth
6. Lamentations - American Aquarium
7. Misfit's Jubilee - Jim White
8. Ever-Roving Eye - James Elkington
9. Wreckless Abandon - The Dirty Knobs
10. Ghosts of West Virginia - Steve Earle & The Dukes

A Special Mention to Tom Petty's "Wildflowers And Al The Rest" reissue, which includes some great new songs on the 2nd disk.

What have been your favourites from 2020?
 
It's not a vote - I don't want to step on @BlueHammer85 's toes, I was just interested what people are listening to.
Most music chat on here seems to be about band and music from the past - just wondered if people listen to new stuff and if so, what.

Wild Flowers reissue is really good as are the Thin Lizzy Rock Legends box set and the UFO reissue of Strangers in the Night.

Not bought many new releases but really like these three:
Blue Oyster Cult - The Symbol Returns
Joe Satriani - Shapeshifting
Bruce Springsteen - Letter to You

I will get The Dirty Knobs and Steve Earle albums; & The Drive-by-Truckers that someone else mentioned. Hopefully, some will be among my Xmas pressies.
