The amount of music released means that good stuff is quickly superseded with the latest releases so, each month and quarter end is a time to take stock of what's been released in the previous period and remind us of the best tracks which quickly get left behind in our quest for the next best thing.
Here's a list of what's been published in this quarter's "The Dirty Dozen" i.e. the best new releases of the week published each Sunday. Even these leave behind some great music, especially loads of album tracks. At some point I'll have to try an highlight some of the best albums released this year.
Links to original posts to remind you of each and to the Dirty Dozen Mix for each.
