'Tis the season for end-of-year top ten lists. And in the spirit of sharing (and feeling it my duty as a music aficionado/nut/snob) I present my top ten favorite albums of 2006. Now because I have voracious (neurotic/ocd) appetite for new music this isn't an easy thing to pull together so I'm gonna get democratic on y'all and pull it from my iTunes play count. After all, if I listened to the albums a bunch then they can be considered my favorites, no? I expect you to share your respective lists in the comments. Come on, don't be shy or selfish about sharing your favs with the rest of us...
