NOTE: THERE’S STILL TIME TO SEND YOUR CREATIVE GOAL FOR 2013. MUSICIANS, ACTORS, AUTHORS, ARTISTS, AND ALL CREATIVE TYPES ARE INVITED TO SEND A ONE-SENTENCE DESCRIPTION. I’M GOING TO START POSTING THE RESPONSES TOMORROW.
Just like the old WLS Top 40, here's a list of some of my favorite releases of 2012. This year, I forced myself to come up with a ranking, rather than going with the usual “in no particular order,” although all of these releases have merit.
To make things easier, I separated the greatest hits and various artists compilations. Here are some noteworthy examples in those categories:
The Hollies - Radio Fun
Shoes - 35 Years - The Definitive Shoes Collection 1977 - 2012
Shoes - 35 Years - The Definitive Shoes Collection 1977 - 2012

Heart - Strange Euphoria
George Harrison - Early Takes Vol. 1
