Just in case you are interested in my favorites of 2000-2009

Thank you for sharing your favorite decades! I realize that they would be different for the different genres, for example, while my favorite in Rock/Pop music is '65 to '75, in Jazz, it would be '55 to '65, though again, I am finding may things I am enjoying that are being made and released right now.

Since we were kids, Norm and I have a top ten list of Rock/Pop albums of the year, with up to ten honorable mentions.We usually share this around New Years. Recently, we decided to make a best of the decade (2000 to 2009), and this is what I came up with, except being a decade and not a year, we had 20 honorable mentions. Number 1 represents my favorite. For those of you for whom this would be torture, I understand. However you get your fix seems good to me.
