Best Music of 2025 - Part 2

Some old and some very old friends make an appearance in this installment. 

30. Patterson Hood - Exploding Trees & Airplane Screams

29. Horsegirl - Phonetics On and On

28. Mumford & Sons - Rushmere

27. Willie Nelson - Oh What a Beautiful World

Some years ago, I started a bit of a Christmas tradition where I gifted my dad a CD that most closely represented the intersection of our musical tastes. Dad passed away this year, but this is the album that would have fit the bill. 

26. Sun Kil Moon - All the Artists

25. Jakko M. Jakszyk - Son of Glen

Somewhat fitting that the album written by the current King Crimson lead singer about his father makes an appearance in this round of ten. 

24. Brown Horses - All the Right Weaknesses

23. Kathleen Edwards - Billionaire

Continuing with the somber theme, it wasn't until I saw her live this year that I realized this album's title track is about a friend she lost recently. 

22. Alan Sparhawk - With Trampled By Turtles

21. James McMurtry - The Black Dog and the Wandering Boy
