LOS ANGELES (AP) — Ten of the top albums of the year, as chosen by Associated Press Music Writer Maria Sherman.
Instead of embracing the antiquated practice of ranking very different albums against one another, we're celebrating the best next to the best.
Leading the charge is Peso Pluma, whose third studio album, “Génesis,” became the highest-charting regional Mexican album of all time.
“Hackney Diamonds,” The Rolling StonesPrior to “Hackney Diamonds,” the Rolling Stones hadn’t released an album of original material in 18 years.
AP's Jocelyn Noveck put it best: This album is their best new work in decades — tight, focused, full of heart and swagger.
