2010 - 2019: THE ROARING 50

Εδώ βρίσκονται πενήντα δίσκοι (τα εξώφυλά τους δηλαδή...) που θα μου θυμίζουν για πάντα τη δεκαετία από το 2010 μέχρι και το 2019. Πενήντα albums με τα οποία έζησα τις καλύτερες και τις χειρότερες στιγμές των πρόσφατων χρόνων. Θεσσαλονίκη, Κολωνία, Ντίσελντορφ, Λονδίνο. Τα παραθέτω, εδώ, για να θυμάμαι και να νοσταλγώ τον χρόνο, τους ανθρώπους, τα μέρη και τις καταστάσεις. Χωρίς αξιολογική σειρά, μιας που το καθένα από αυτά, έχει κάτι πολύ ιδιαίτερο, που το κάνει, όχι καλύτερο, αλλά απλώς να ξεχωρίζει από τα υπόλοιπα και να ξυπνά μνήμες. Μερικοί δίσκοι έχουν μυρωδιά. Το άρωμα της εποχής τους.
