Ahh, the "Best Of" lists, when I get the privilege to tell you "what is what." For me, the releases below are not the best discs of 2024 but the ones I kept coming back to most often this past year. I certainly missed a few, as I will discover reading other AAJ contributor's best-of lists. Then there are the discs that came out just before this goes live. I've recently discovered music by Jeff Parker ETA IVtet: The Way Out Easy (International Anthem), the reunion of Mats Gustafsson's AALY Trio Sustain (Silkheart), Full Cream (Sugar Hoof) with Greg Ward, Ziv Ravitz, Matthew Stevens, and Leo Genovese, and Ivo Perelman's São Paulo Creative 4 SuperNova. I wish this year-end list could be a bit more fluid, allowing me to change the lineup every month.
