Q - 354 Albums To Blow Your Mind.
Summer 2020 edition (413)

Well not quite. After boasting 500 in the previous edition of Q, only 346 actually appeared. Unless I’m blind, which is debatable, and after three duplicates were removed, 6 seem to have gone astray. However, still a good list to keep collectors going for a few months. Not the usual selection of albums found in best of lists of resent years.

Selections made by individuals in the business and from independent record shops. They were told not to select the most obvious and dig out something a bit more obscure to bring to a larger audience.

The list is presented here in alphabetical order. Track down the original magazine (Q iss. 413 – summer 2020) for full appraisal of the albums featured.
