Filed under: 2008 Top 20
being mental takes up more time than I expected, so I’m afraid I’m totally failed to produce an end of year chart rundown.
Or much else, lately.
But I should be done with all the trick cyclist stuff in a few weeks and I’ll come bouncing back as full of shit as ever.
So anyway, I did compile a Top 20 of the year. Not a vintage year, and my top 10 especially is a bit predictable. But still plenty of goodies to be had.
Seems like a safe choice, my Number One, but it really is a cracking album

After endless faffing, re-faffing and a bit of shouting, I’ve now signed up for a paid-for hosting thingy with Mediafire, which should mean downloads that are permanently available and ad-free.
So I’ll start uploading mixes ASAP. I won’t bother with individual tracks so if there’s anything particular you’re missing, drop me a line.
And now that’s sorted – starting on Friday, it’s my 2008 Top 20 Albums of The Year. And what a year it’s been.
