Le classifiche degli altri: i migliori dischi del 2024 per Uncut

Come a Capodanno, quando c’è sempre chi inizia con i fuochi d’artificio ampiamente prima della mezzanotte (senza scomodare il buon maestro Canello di fantozziana memoria), anche tra le riviste musicali è iniziata la corsa a pubblicare in anticipo la propria classifica dei migliori album dell’anno che si sta concludendo. Tra i primi a dare fuoco alle polveri, sono stati il magazine Mojo, la cui top 75 del 2024 vi abbiamo proposto qualche giorno fa, e Uncut, rivista mensile britannica il cui primo numero uscì in edicola in Gran Bretagna nel maggio 1997, diretta da Allan Jones (ex-direttore di Melody Maker).
