It is here a new year and time to take the music out of the crates…uh I mean hard drive and see what I played in 2009. I didn’t want to make the typical top 5, 100 or whatever number you want to throw in there. This is the music in 2009 that I consumed and enjoyed without having to put one album over another. Maybe there is something on this list that you missed and can pick up for 2010.
