We asked and you answered. Earlier this month, we opened the polls and invited All Songs Considered's listeners to tell us their top 5 records of the year. We tabulated all of the ballots, determined the top 10, and gave the results a proper countdown in this episode of All Songs. And while we usually include the albums we discuss in our episode notes, this time you'll have to listen to find out what made the list. (OK, fine, you can click here to see the top 50 vote-getters.) NPR Music critic Sheldon Pearce joins host Robin Hilton. Enjoy the show? Share it with a friend and leave us a review on Apple, Spotify, or wherever you listen to podcasts.
