It’s time I actually wrote all of this down. I’m going with a top-20 (instead of 10) list because I need the room to get everyone on I think should be on. Many good albums came out at the end of the year, so I haven’t had time to process them to the degree I like. Contrastingly, I found a few favorites early on in 2008 that could, or could not, stand the test of time against my newer attractions. Lastly, some of these albums aren’t great musical works. Some of them I simply enjoy listening too that much. Enjoy, and comment to let me know what you think!

Oh wow- you like much better music than what I’ve heard you listen to. What’s up with that?!

Who knows. Sometimes I listen to bad music just because I want to. I’m an audiophile. I know what’s up!
