Record of Years
I am very aware of how anal creating a record of the year as voted for by oneself and for the consumption of - well - oneself but nevertheless I am doing because I miss the process of organising records that came with the Festive Fifty.
Previous winners of this not really an honour...
- 2011 I Am Very Far - Okkervil River
- 2010 Love and Its Opposites - Tracey Thorn
- 2009 Blue Roses - Blue Roses

The following were done retroactively in 1990.

- 1988 Green - R.E.M.
- 1987 Music for the Masses - Depeche Mode
- 1986 The Queen Is Dead - The Smiths
- 1985 Meat Is Murder - The Smiths
Then I stopped and played out or something cause back then I thought that the love songs of Out Of Time were better than the bitter regret of Seamonsters.
