Happy New Year!

Hellooooo music lovers!
First off, I have to apologize to you all. As of today, I have not figured out my top 10 albums of 2012. You see, 2012 was a gong show year for me, my family and some very close friends. Needless to say, I am so glad that 2012 is over! Bring on 2013! For me, 2012 was a year that fell off the map in terms of music. It's a sad state of affairs and something that has happened since I was about, oh, maybe 15 years old or so. It felt like something was missing. So it is very difficult to pick albums from 2012 when I listened to (in depth) about 10 albums in total. A sad state, indeed. I may have to get the help from a friend or two to help me out, but that just hasn't happened yet. So we'll have to settle for playing music from 2011 and beyond... with some 2012 mixed in. Also, Happy new year! Hooray for 2013!
