13 Albums that Stood Out in 2013

I really wanted to write “The Top 13 albums of 2013” and keep up the tradition that has been going strong on this blog for the past five years, but when I thought of my favourite, most-listened to, albums this year, I only came up with a handful of titles.

Conshus and I talked about our favourite albums of the year on Our Show on 91.5 fm in WInterpark, Florida as part of our weekly live radio program. Since I am in Canada, we do this via Google Hangouts every week. You can see our entire conversation on the YouTube video below.

I managed to come up with 13 albums that I enjoyed this year.

Like Conshus says, we don’t need to do a best-of list because everything we play on the show is the best.

So here are my most-listened to albums of the year.
