Sounds of The First Decade
Here are eleven albums from the first decade of this century that I like a whole lot. I'm not going to write about them, because I usually find the task of writing about music to be rather difficult and a little silly when I reread it. If you're like me, you like surprises, so investigate these on your own and hopefully you'll discover a fresh thing or two that delights your ears. I wouldn't be making this list if I didn't love all of these recordings very much. (In no particular order. . . )
