Recent Obsessions

I frequently have a “new-to-me” artist or album in my car set on repeat. Sometimes it is an old favorite too! Were you to ask me what I’ve been listening to, I might answer with “everything” or I might just give you this top few albums off this list. All of my “Must Own Albums” fell into this category at some point in my life, but have withstood the test of time. Many of these will probably be added to the “Must Own Albums” list eventually (a couple already have).
