Glide's 5th Annual Best of 2007: From the Artists' PerspectiveBy The Glide StaffDecember 19, 2007 |
|
Everyone makes their standard "best of's," top 10s" and "year in review" lists, but each December we like to take that model a couple of steps further. We go straight to the artists to see where they found inspiration over the past twelve months, and we don't stop with just album choices. We dig a bit deeper and go for a broader picture of the past year in art. From classic moments on the road to their guilty pleasure confessions, this is a panoramic snapshot of "the best of 2007," and a peek into what to expect in '08.

Radiohead, In Rainbows, If only for the stir. The music’s great, as is everything those blokes do, and the statement will be remembered.

Classic Album or Artist You Discovered This Year |
-
Rahsaan Roland Kirk’s Volunteered Slavery. I’d listened to it before, but it really got me through a tough emotional spot this year, along with some other good blues records. Sometimes I just need to hear that much raw emotion all at once.
