Faves of 2017 (vol. 2)

It's been a long time coming, but the new UHM faves mix is finally ready to rock dad's pants off at your next family gathering.

This one's chock full of stuff from albums that will undoubtedly be featured in my Best of the Year list. It's been great to hear some of this blog's all-time favorites return with maybe the best music of their careers (so far). But there have been some disappointments too. I try to stick with only the positive here, however, so my thoughts on long-awaited releases by Jim Jones and J. Roddy Wa1ston - as well as longer-awaited releases by the Dream Syndicate and the F1amin' Groovies - will have to be saved for elsewhere.

My favorite for the year so far, and unlikely to be topped, is Sweet Spirit's 'St. Mojo.' Spectacular. Close by is their alter ego A Giant Dog's 'Toy.' It's a hell of a 1-2 punch. The Sheer Mag is right up there too. Also loved Cait Brennan's 2nd, 'Third.'

Never heard of them before, but The Preatures have a great name. Fun song too. Nice to hear from the Popguns too. Pretty good year, going by this compilation. Thanks Roy.

I'll have to track down that new Sweet Spirit before the end of the year. Ditto Cait Brennan. I'm still going to cobble together a 3rd volume of 2017 faves before putting together a Year's Best, so I appreciate the suggestions!
