1 Kix - Rock Your Face Off - The first new album by Kix in 19 years didn't disappoint me in any way. As good as their debut album.
2 AC/DC - Rock Or Bust - This one could have made number one had it come out early in the year. Every bit as good as Back In Black.
3 Slash featuring Myles Kennedy & The Conspirators - World On Fire- Albums that are normally 17 songs are filled with throw away boring songs. Not this one...kick ass Rock n Roll all the way through.
4 American Dog - Neanderthal - The best band in america that nobody's heard of comes out with yet another solid kick ass album.
5 Night Ranger - High Road - Great album by the Night Ranger crew
6 Tesla - Simplicity - Anybody that say's Jeff Kieth's voice is shot is full of shit.
7 The Pretty Reckless -Going To Hell- I don't care for most new bands but this band I love. Great vocals, great song writing.
8 California Breed - California Breed - Great old school Deep Purple/ Led Zeppelin music. Lead by the fantastic Glenn Hughes.
9 Accept - Blind Rage - These German metal heads knocked Judas Priest out of my Top 10.
10 The Last Vegas - Sweet Salvation- Great old school sleazy Rock n Roll

I just don't buy and listen to CDs like I used to. I buy fewer, put them on my iPod relatively quickly and only hear them one song at a time as the songs come up. That said, here's a few that I got in 2014 that I recall listening to fairly often in my CD player before putting them on my iPod. Most, if not all of these were released BEFORE 2014:
Lynyrd Skynyrd-Last Of A Dying Breed
Judas Priest-Stained Class
Brad Paisley-This Is Country Music
Status Quo-In The Army Now
Shooter Jennings-The Other Life
Stan Bush-Dream The Dream
Eddy Raven-Live

Jesse...I think you should give Sturgill Simpson's Metamodern Sounds in Country Music. If you like the outlaw-country music of the 70s, you will love this guy.

Tempted of making a list of cd's I want to buy from these lists! AC/DC (which I'll get in the next day or 2), Judas Priest, Weezer,Shooter Jennings(he does a song, w/ Jim Dandy(Black Oak Arkansas that sounds cool)),American Dog(I have a couple of their cd's and like them a lot), the Clarks ...etc.
This year I bought a ton of cd's and d/l's but not a whole bunch of new ones. Anyway...here's what I liked this year even though I do have some different tastes...
1) Ace Frehley "Space Invader"
2) Alice Cooper "Raise the Dead :Live from Wacken" (CD/DVD combo...pretty cool because he does tributes to his drinking buddies: John Lennon "Revolution", Jimi Hendrix "Foxy Lady", Jim Morrison "Break on Through", & Keith Moon "My Generation")
3) Rolling Stones "Live from L.A." (CD/DVD combo with a really cool hard jam of Jumpin Jack Flash)
4) Greg "Stackhouse" Prevost "Mississippi Murderer" (ex lead singer of Chesterfield Kings cool blues album)
5) Kevin K "Hurt You" (New York rocker w/punk edge half acoustic half electric album)
6) Neil Young "Letter Home" (I found this interesting because he recorded it w/ his guitar in an old fashioned mobile recording studio about the size of a phone booth)
7) Robert Gordon "Coming Home" ( NY Rockabilly singer from the 1970's)
8) the Dead Milkmen "Pretty Music for Pretty People" ( Yeah... I love the Dead Milkmen!)
9) Johnny Winter "Step Back" ( Johnny's final album w/ some great guests: Billy Gibbons, Eric Clapton, Brian Seltzer, Leslie West, Joe Perry, Joe Bonamassa),
10) the Raskins "the Raskins" ( I seen them open for Motley Crue & Alice Cooper and enjoyed them although they did come off better live than on cd...)
