Best Rock Album of 2016


Alright rock fans, let's get our annual thread started.

I'm really digging Sturgill Simpson's "A Sailor's Guide to Earth" - yeah, I know its not pure rock and roll as he's an alt-country/americana guy with country roots, but this album is just killer.  Easily will be on my top albums of the year list.

jafant,

laughing...... Robert Plant is old.

BTW, is there a new Robert Plant album? I didn't see one on Amazon, iTunes or wiki 2016 Album releases. 

Robert Plant may be old but there is a reason the songs from the 60,70's still keep on playing. It had soul, depth.

I just don't think the younger Rock Music is very good. They all jump around the stage but the music is pretty mundane. Disposal in my opinion.

"And stay off my lawn"!

Robert Plant and the Sensational Sound Shifters "lullaby and...The Ceaseless Roar"

Although, I just recently learned of this, ( I don't know which one jafant refers to) I noticed it was released in 2014.

I highly recommend watching the ACL set. Plant melds in some of the classic Led Zeppelin with his new stuff. I found it to be inspirational and fresh.

My vinyl just arrived. It's a double lp (three music side) with a cd. Pressed at Pallas.
