Records of the Year 2016

Starting out as a list of over 500 albums, has been voted on, argued about, fought over, reappraised, reconsidered and finally presented for you here as our top 100 albums of 2016*. This special edition of our Deluxe magazine also features interviews with Tim Smith and Shirley Collins.

The physical copies look and smell great, we stick them in with all online orders... Read the issue in full here.
