Top 10 - 2006

I listen to music, a lot of it. I consumed something around 225 albums this year, not to mention another 200 or so band demos sent to me because I do the booking at Cranky Pats. Compiling a top 10 list is something that me and my friends have been doing for over a decade now, but I think this year I listened to more than in years past. It probably has something to do with the fact that I spend 60 hours a week (at least) working in my office with the music on, unless I’m on the phone with a client.

Anywhoo, here’s the albums that impacted me the most this year. Listed alphabetically.


The Avett Brothers - Four Theives Gone


The Drive-By Truckers - A Blessing and a Curse


Blueheels - Long Gone


Bruce Springsteen - The Seeger Sessions


Bob Dylan - Modern Times


The Hold Steady - Boys and Girls in America


The Litle Willies - s/t


Van Morrison - Pay The Devil


Rocky Votolato - Makers


Tom Waits - Orphans - Brawlers, Bawlers & Bastards
