It sounds good to me. What, am I supposed to run from amclark's recs??? -
It occurred to me that Denver might be a tag in Bandcamp, and sure enou… -
Brighternow, I'd never run into Soundcloud before, and the things on it are well outside my usual sphere of listening, but I'm enjoying it. And my daughter has shown a little interest in making her own music, so I'll point her there. thanks!BigD, several of yours could have been on my list, particularly Buffalo Springfield.
Germanprof, I'm glad to see there's another Over the Rhine fan in the group besides me and qwynwyn, I think.
All this diversity, as with our…1. No question about my first, and probably no surprise to some here. In the last 40-odd years I've listened to it more than a thousand times, I calculate, so every note is inscribed in my DNA.

In previous years I think they hosted the albums themselves, but now they're using Grooveshark. Right now only albums 50-41 are up, but they'll d…I owe a guy who used to be on the emu boards with the nick fatbastardspice for a tip about Tom Jones.
Cafreema, we are in the US. I showed my daughter this thread and she said, "That's because I'm cool!" She's completely contemptuous of …Re No Depression lists: Those are real interesting--thanks. The trouble with other lists is that they make me want to begin second-guessing mine. No one can listen to and absorb everything, or at least I can't, so any list is not really "The Best" b…My final version, which changed some from what I posted here a few weeks ago. A couple of additions, and Arcade Fire bumped higher.
in 2010 - The Year In Music Comment by denver January 2011Does this Wanderer guy (it has to be a guy) have a job or anything? Does anyone know? He's posted 10 times on the "It was nice while it lasted..." thread alone.I don't mean to hijack, but I haven't figured how to start a new topic here.
Someone named Dabloozer has a good story about pissing and moaning: h…Has the name eMusic become so tainted by bad publicity that they're trying to transition away from it?I don't know about the music TMT lists--I haven't listened to it yet--but I can't stand the way they write about it.

Edit: I just got the whole album and the 2010 Woven Hand from emu. I'll see if either has any impact on my list before I really publi…The World Won't End was one of the first things I got on emu, IIRC, and certainly one of the first that was new music. At first I was just getting older music--Chuck Berry, delta blues, jazz, classical. I had given largely up on popular music becaus…This was the "Question for Cathy" thread, right? When I try to go to it I get an "Oops! Page Not Found."
Edit this morning: It's working now.It's odd that I used the phrase "in the vein of." I think I absorbed that unconsciously from marsupilami.If he's in the vein of Anthony Hamilton or Cee-Lo I might have to give him a listen.Amazon's list:
The Best Albums of 2010
1. Sigh No More Mumford & Sons
2. The Suburbs Arcade Fire
3. Brothers The Black Keys

I have a full month's credit, $17.89, and I'm not downloading because I'm thinking about whether or not I will do the honorable thing.
For some reason when the first rolled around they tried to charge my PapPal account …I didn't recognize the name Timothy Monger, but you've heard him if you've listened to The Original Brothers and Sisters of Love or the Great Lakes Myth Society.Oh, there's a new Pernice Brothers? I'll have to look for that!I'm about done writing about mine for my puny blog, and I'll post the link when it's done, but here's my list:
1. Janelle MonIt's still down for me. Someone named Jazzy has figured out that the reason for all the changes is to get people to cancel and leave a few cents behind. If word gets out, no one will cancel and their plan will be foiled.
