In a year to forget, one thing that will be remembered is the amount of great music that was released in 2020. Vinyl sales peaked during the last twelve months, helped by a plethora of fantastic releases and limited edition variants. There were welcome returns from veterans such as AC/DC, Bob Dylan, and Paul McCartney, along with fantastic albums from cult and commercial favourites like Corey Taylor, Fiona Apple, Phoebe Bridgers, and more.
Not to mention the staggering amount of high quality reissues, first time pressings, and exciting new colourways that came out in 2020. Green Day, Bruno Mars, David Bowie, Killing Joke, Fleetwood Mac and dozens more all had albums reissued this year, and the vinyl resurgence shows no sign of slowing down.
