2014 Regrets

Four months on from 2014 there are 3 albums I wish had made my list:

Richard Dawson - Nothing Important
So raw. This would have made the top 5 I think. Just an incredible piece of songwriting.

Swans - To Be Kind
The grooves on this album are so deep. Would have also made the top 5, probably squeezing in at #2 if I was making the list today. It's a double album and I keep finding new things to love about this record. It was just too big/deep for me to get in 2014.

D'Angelo - Black Messiah
Came out at the very end of the year. Some people may consider it 2015. Wasn't really aware of him before this came out. Would have been fighting for a place around #8 I would guess.
