Lots of cool jazz 45s came across the Flea Market Funk desk this past year. It was a good year for jazz on other forms of vinyl as well, so once again we pick our favorites we highlighted on the site in 2018. Of course, we can’t pick them all, and although we don’t agree with this tweet from Young Guru in regards to best of lists:

Everyone’s “Best of the year” should read. “Sorry I didn’t have time to listen to everything so I can’t really say”

we picked our favorites that were covered this year by us. 45s, 10″, and Lps, here is a list in no particular order. Enjoy!
