I’m back in the office today and I’ve decided to starting working my way through Pitchfork’s The Top 50 Albums of 2009. After a quick glance at the albums on the list I see many that I have heard and many that I won’t enjoy listening to.
My plan to is to listen to each album and write a post about it. On some days I may feel ambitious and post about multiple albums. Other days I may not post about any.
[I’ll come back and make these links this evening at some point.]
