Another Tops List

So, at the end of last year the staff at WRVU wanted all the DJs at the station to put together their lists of the best albums of the year and of the decade. They compiled all of the lists to make a composite-WRVU list. Well, maybe 10 percent of the albums I listed made the composite list, so I figure I should post my lists for those who yearn for something more than an indie-flavor-of-the-week list.
