I don't know where to start. That is a great year for music. I love that huge stack of Jazz! As you know, that is my most listened to genre and I keep getting deeper and deeper in. The Blue Note reissues all seem to be great. I haven't yet found a dud in the lot. As for Jim Cuddy, he is fantastic. I've seen Blue Rodeo twice 20 years apart, his solo band (he has a phenomenal fiddle player) and him playing on the cross Canada CP Holiday Train. Then in 2023, I bumped into him in the produce section of our local grocery store where my daughter works. I had a great chat with him and what a down to earth guy. I am still waiting for my AA pre-order...I do have Lamentations waiting to be opened. I have a bunch of the other ones you have too: Neil (love Duma), The Dead (that Jerry looks amazing) and an earlier version of the Albert King (must have). I am glad you got out of your holiday funk. I don't fare too well that time of year either. Kind of fell off the wagon and got stressed about things. But all and all, it is actually pretty predictable, so I should know better! Great video, once again, and I look forward to seeing what you discover in 2025.
