I hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving.  It is Black Friday and everyone will rush out shopping so you might as well pick up some new music.  There is not a whole lot out which makes sense as it is the day after a major Holiday.  The good thing is it will give me a chance to catch up on some prior releases.  The only two I will give a listen to this week are highlighted in Blue.

•   The Weeknd – Starboy – (The Weeknd XO):  His last release actually grew on me and I found it quite interesting.  Hopefully he can take it to the next level with this one and become a bonafide star.  I like his voice and think he has major potential.

•   Heart & The Royal Philharmonic Orchestra – Live at the Royal Albert Hall – (Heart General Partnership):  Anything Heart gets a listen even though I haven’t been real impressed with their latest releases.  However, this is a live greatest hits album with some orchestra music added to some of the songs.

•   The Afghan Whigs – Black Love (20th Anniversary) – (Royal Cream LLC)

•   Icon For Hire – You Can’t Kill Us – (Icon for Hire)

•   Kylie Minogue – Kylie Christmas (Snow Queen Edition) – (Firewheel LLP)
