What Are Your Top Ten Most Listened to Albums in 2007? Sun. Dec 30th, 07
So what did you listen to the most? I can get a glimpse of it at your lastfm account, but, assuming you don’t always listen to music on your computer, there are other votes to count. So what were your top ten or fifteen in 2007? I wanna know what I could have been listening to.
This year is easy for me to calculate, these are the clear front runners:
Complete Early Recordings (1931) Skip James
Complete Swing Time / Down Beat Recordings Vol. 1 (1949-52) Ray Charles
Blonde on Blonde (1966) Bob Dylan
Sound of Confusion (1986) Spacemen 3
Methodrone (1995) The Brian Jonestown Massacre
Myra Lee (1996) Cat Power
What Would the Community Think (1996) Cat Power
Perfect From Now On (1997) Built to Spill
XO (199 
Elliott Smith
Neon Bible (2007) The Arcade Fire
Feel free to poke fun at the fact that only one album was from this year. I’m just one step away from becoming that janitor at one of the old folks homes I worked at, whom I used to chuckle at for wearing, in 1995, extremely faded Megadeth t-shirts and fondly proclaiming, “Man, it’ll probably never get better than Sabbath.”
Sorry I never got back to you guys on this one. Here goes, in NO particular order:
Confusion is Sex - Sonic Youth
Darko of Spank Rock Compilation
Disturbing Domestic Peace - The Ex
Harshing Your Mellow - Akimbo
Trojan Rockers Box Set
Decade - Neil Young (Yes, I am STILL listening to this on a regular basis.)

Thelonius Monk Quartet with John Coltraine at Carnegie Hall
Out of the Afternoon - Roy Haynes
Wish I could think of more, but I don’t have my music selection at my disposal at the moment. I am QUITE sure that I am forgetting something major.
I think only one of these albums is from this year, too. Not much into buying new music these days, except for a lot of vinyl I can’t listen to, but that’s another story for another blog.
