I have made a list for the last twenty years and decided to post it here this year. I welcome any suggestions that I might have missed.

As you can see, my taste is different than most "audiophiles", or maybe I haven't met them yet.

2008 was a great year for music.

Please let me know what your favorites are....

"Real Animal" by Alejandro Escovedo
"Little Honey" by Lucinda Williams

If you haven't heard Escovedo, he's a genuine rocker. One of the best. Title track is about Iggy Pop. Song "Chelsea Hotel" is about Sid Vicious' death.

Lucinda actually sounds happy on this one. As she sings on the first cut, "Real Love," she's found hers. She also covers AC/DC's "It's A Long Way To The Top (If You Want To Rock 'N' Roll).
