You're so impatient, aren't you?

There are still 23 days left in the year, what if the best is yet to come?

OK what the hey, I'll play along...

Gary Clark, Jr.'s Black and Blu is pretty high on my list right now. I like the aforementioned Steve Cropper disc quite a bit as well. But Clark is killin' it.

Once we get past my birthday (December 8th) the year is pretty much done for me. I just ride out those last few weeks.
