Favorite Albums of 2009 By  

Of the many albums I've managed to truly listen to (as opposed to throwing 'em on in the background at work), these are the ones that stuck around or kicked me in the butt hard enuf to never want to take them out of my CD player.

      that came with the list making as a default function... although, since i work for a company that does marketing for mom & pop record stores, i'd hope that folks would ignore the amazon link, print the list, and head out to their favorite local independent record store to buy them! :)
