20 Great Albums of 2020
True Tunes Podcast – 20 Albums from 2020 SHOW NOTES
We’re not calling these the BEST ALBUMS of the YEAR – but they are all pretty excellent. Yes, there are several other amazing records that are on other lists, or that everyone is talking about. And you have to stop talking sometimes. But these are 20 albums that really stuck with us from 2020.
What are yours? Why?
Make sure to FOLLOW our weekly Gallery Stage Mixtape for a blend of great music, new and old, of diverse genres, that is updated weekly. And if you want to see what you have missed over the last few years, check out the massive ARCHIVE list. If you have an “album of the year” that we did not touch on, drop us a line and let us know. We may include it on THIS EXTENDED LIST of great albums from 2020. And don’t miss this extended list of SINGLES from 2020. When we call this whole thing a conversation, we are serious!
And here’s to 2021 – and more great music and great conversations, as we all lean on each other, and a rock that is much stronger than we are, for strength, guidance, hope, and peace.
