Many happy returns of the day, though commiserations on having to share a birthday with Robbie Williams. I'm so sorry. It could be worse, I share my birthday with Bill Gates.

Well, 2021 was a little better, as I have a list of top four records, and a lot of individual tracks.  (I made a lengthy Spotify playlist ) So, without further ado, here’s my list of favorites of the year: Albums Deafheaven, Infinite Granite (listen) Hands down, my favorite album of the year.
