Holiday 2006
Once you've started keeping a yearly top 15 list of your favorite albums, it's impossible to stop. I haven't been a proper music critic since 1999 and yet I dutifully compile a top 15 every year, and will probably do so until the end of the music industry itself – which, by my estimates, should happen any minute now. When society falls down, the ice caps melt and bands no longer release "albums" purchasable in "record stores," I imagine I'll adapt with the times: a list of the top 15 downloadable album-like units in a given year, or perhaps a list of the top 15 most interesting lists from preceding years.
