captains dead’s top 13 records of the ’07

by gregor on December 9, 2007

i listened to a lot of records this year, probably too many for my own damn good. i tend to obsess over records over extended periods of time. this personality defect doesn’t really lend itself well to giving other, obsessive worthy records the ability to firmly plant themselves into my brain. so, here are my 13 favorite, see most obsessed over, records of 2007.

Nice to see someone else recognizing Isbell’s album.

yeah, its a great record and would probably could have been number one but the flow of the record sucks, imo.
