So I combed through my favorite albums of 2009. It has occurred to me as I look over the list that picking favorites is kinda nutty. As I write this I’m wondering if selecting the cream of the bunch helps you as a reader filter things. One big ole list can be a little daunting. Ok, OK, I’m selecting my favs of the favs – I do think ranking stuff as most people do . . . is for the birds. Oh my 10 is really 12.
