2009 Albums Worth Your Time
February 9, 2010
DISCLAIMER: I refuse to declare “the best” or even “the notable” albums of 2009. The best I can is offer is a list of music that gripped me last year. So let there be no hateful comments or shoes thrown.

Your list just makes me feel old. I simply haven’t heard of any of these groups/people. Ah, for the good old days of Neil Young and the Beatles!

Neil Young and the Beatles are a core part of our tradition! I wouldn’t be catholic if I didn’t recognize the voices of my ancestors.
The above list simply represents my reformation principles—semper reformanda!

Bob,
There probably aren’t many people in the world that would recognize these bands (only a couple of them hit the “top 100″ list on Amazon – and most people don’t seek out new music, they just listen to what’s on the radio or in their personal collection), don’t feel bad.
Reed,
It is part of my campaign against being “that out-of-touch old guy” to continue to seek out and listen to the most contemporary music – so, thanks for the list. I can’t say that I have listened to much of this (my tastes tend to run toward the angrier music), but I’ll check it out.
