Album of The Year - Endgame

I switched off from music around this time so it's a short list, and topped with a historical album. But some great music on this list nonetheless - I absolutely adore June Tabor's cover of Love Will Tear Us Apart.

1. Miles Davis - Live in Europe 1967
2. Gillian Welch - The Harvest and the Harrow
3. June Tabor & Oysterband - Ragged Kingdom
4. The Roots - Undun
5. Radiohead - The King of Limbs
6. Bill Callahan - Apocalypse
7. Fatoumata Diawara - Fatou

EDIT: Included Undun as somehow missed that out

Timber Timbre’s Black Water is definitely a top 10 track from 2011. I absolutely adore that song! I like that fancy, indulgent, swaying, genaisayquoi aesthetic of the song! It’s such a cinematic song that has a creeping piano Note and a devastatingly beautiful chorus! 💎

I’m definitely going to re-listen to that Timber Timbre album because I have a really good feeling about it! Happy you posted that track! ♥️
