Top 71 Music Albums of 2016
by 
Davy 
the year bowie, cohen, prince died. and nick cave released one hell of a sad album aswell while danny brown pulls us further down into the downward spiral. Difficult music for sure - happy enough that some artists took a more light approach: the jazzy vogue of the music coming out in this year sparked a sunshiny vibe on a lot of these artists albums.
