End of year charts.

coo. look at that. (salivates).

i dunno if i'll get round to doing an end of year thing. the logistics! also, queerly, the year something came out is one of my blindspots (evidently!)

i imagine i'll just chase around trying to hear what everyone else has bigged up. (strokes chin) seeing how it sizes up...

i get in a right tangle trying to trace vinyl that's on these "best-of" charts. recently i've found that other people's lists are between 50% and 75% bluff. (not that i'm suggesting jess's is, seriously). they don't actually OWN the vinyl, i mean why should they? you only have to hear it to have an opinion for chrissakes! having said that (wink) i have extremely entrenched opinions on many things i haven't heard.....

i'm growing a bit of confidence (just a bit!) maybe caring less what other folks love, trusting my own judgement a fraction. its a scary line this division between punter and pundit. it's much more comfortable to be a punter. i'd argue you get much more pleasure as a punter too.
