Top Albums of 2012

It’s me again!  And here are my favorite albums from 2012.

1.  Easy winner.  Damien Jurado’s Maraqopa.

Just go buy it.  On vinyl if you are set up that way.

I photographed the album release show earlier in 2012.

 

2.  Jason Isbell and the 400 Unit’s Live From Alabama.

I’m a huge fan of Isbell’s storytelling and songwriting, and this album captures that feel quite well.

 

Honorable Mentions:

• The Gaslight Anthem – Handwritten
• Alabama Shakes – Boys and Girls
• David Crowder Band – Give Us a Rest
• The Shins – Point of Morrow
• Patterson Hood – Heat Lightning Rumbles in the Distance
