Music Gourmets Presents 60 Years of Great Music - 2010

Welcome to the next year in our "Great Music" series - 2010

Here's the rules:

Each week, we'll introduce a new year from 1957 through 2017. Each member selects an album released in that year with a few lines (or more) on why you picked it/enjoy it. Your selection does not have to be the most important release or the most admired release of that year (though it certainly can be), simply an album that grabs you and that you really love.

However, once an album is selected by a member, you must choose a different album.

Together we will compile quite the canon of "Great Music" and, who knows, maybe inspire each other to check out some new artists (or to revisit old forgotten classics).

This week - the albums of 2010
 
Marina and the Diamonds - The Family Jewels

2010 wasn't as loaded as 2009, but this is a fun album.
 
I got nothin'. I found a couple of albums by artists I know and that are now on my list to listen to. But as far as notable, I remembered making a mental note to check out this duo. I just listened to this today and I like it...

The Secret Sisters - s/t



I'm a sucker for women singing harmony. And after a lifetime of not caring much for country music, I'm finding old school country creeping into my good graces. These ladies deliver a nice throwback sound to classic country, which I didn't like when it wasn't yet classic, but I'm starting to fall for in the neo- and revival era of today.
 
Sun Kil Moon ~ Admiral Fell Promises



Just Mark's voice and guitar. Simply gorgeous.
