XP - guess 2010 was the wrong thread. I originally didn't put my list on this one because there's usually some difference between the albums you like mid-year and what you decide on after some re-listening and thinking at the end of the year.
I finished the list for my site just before Xmas, and if you're curious, see link below to see what horrible things I did to Dr. Seuss' Grinch.
