Here are the ones I'm looking forward to:
1.) Stevie Nicks - "In Your Dreams" - most excited about! I think Stevie sounds terrific on "Secret Love" and can't wait to hear the rest of the album.
2.) Roxette - "Charm School" - also really excited about... It's their first new studio album in 10 years, and I am excited to hear Marie Fredriksson's voice on the album. I have heard her since her battle with her brain tumor passed, but her voice has slowly been regaining strength over the past few years... and with studio magic and always superb production from Mr. Gessle and his cohorts, I have high expectations. Much like Stevie, for quite a few years, it was assumed there would never be a new Roxette album.
3.) Lindsey Buckinghams - "?" - can't wait to see what he's come up with this time!
4.) Rush - "Clockwork Angels" - they are going back in the studio to finish a couple more songs, but they've been working on this one for awhile from what I've read... should be interesting.
5.) Sophie Ellis-Bextor - "Make A Scene" - this is another one that's been delayed for awhile... hopefully it will live up to her previous albums... I'm not a BIG lover of dance/pop stuff, but I like her voice a lot.
6.) Blackfield - "Welcome To My DNA" - anything Steven Wilson (of Porcupine Tree) does interests me.. I don't always love all of it, but I'm curious to hear this new collaboration (they've released 2 decent albums under this moniker previously that have some really nice highlights).
