Gilmour's album won prog magazine album of the year yet has been largely shunned by PA listeners it seems. A view I hear echoed generally is that 2024 was a year that ran deep for good releases but the quality at the top was below that of the previous year. I tend to agree.

OK, I will try to block the w-e to come up with an order in my list (whih is now closed) and hopefully I'll manage to achieve that for monday at the latest, but I'm still unable to build list with AP, so it'll be a word list published in this thread.
I'm not even sure I'll want to make separate "rock" and "jazz" lists ohave time for it.

not that my list will change much what's coming in the cumlulative ranking, so it doesn't matter whether it will taken into account to set it up.
let's just stay above the moral melee
prefer the sink to the gutter
keep our sand-castle virtues
content to be a doer
as well as a thinker,
prefer lifting our pen
rather than un-sheath our sword

FYI: During the last 24 hours some users have updated their list through AP ... nice job! It is not visible in this thread, so don't assume that things aren't happening just because there are no posts here Smile

BTW: BBT is catching up on SGM ...

Obviously it's hard to say unless you have a tool to keep track of it, but for me, when I had like 50 releases in the list there were many which I had only heard once. This year I'm filtering the list for releases that I still find truly outstanding after repeated listens throughout the year. I'm NOT saying that this is better or worse than any other strategy - what's your opinion? Smile

I have to be drawn back to an album after a first listen in order for it to earn my devoted/undivided attention for the creation of a review. With over 100 albums listened to from 2024, only about 60 earned reviews.

^ Impressive! I am curious how you would tier all these releases, how many would end up in the S or A tier. Possibly all of them? Smile

I don't know what you mean by S or A tier. I grade my albums on a 10-point scale (divide by 2 to get Prog Archives 5-star scale):
Albums 1-4 are between 9.00 and 10 (masterpiece)
Albums 5-17 are between 8.50 and 8.99 (just under a masterpiece)
Albums 18-40 are between 8.00 and 8.49 (great album)
Albums 41-59 are between 7.50 and 7.99 (very good album)
Albums 60-63 are between 7.00 and 7.49 (good album, but not likely to listen to very often)

I didn't enter anything under 7.00 (which would be poor to OK)

Does that help?

I was really impressed with those two. I believe I discovered both of them from some list you made in one of those "best of 2024" threads, so I owe you thanks for bringing them my attention. Now I need to set aside some time to explore their previous albums.
