Matt, I have your Top 7 -- I got that a few days ago. However, Will, I
don't see yours in my mailbox, so please send it again -- I would recommend
to everyone who wants to post their Top 20 to the list to CC: me. Sometimes
a list that gets caught in Audities limbo makes it to me - and then I can
forward it to the list if you still have problems publishing it.
I know the flood of 'ballots' will come after Xmas - I just want to give a
shout out to the lurkers -- if you want to stay lurky (?) just send your
entry to me. This poll is for everyone and to see what type of consensus we
come to.
Finally -- Rosanne Cash, Lindsey Buckingham, Alejandro Escovedo, Def Leppard
(and I never thought they'd be a candidate) are all terrific records that
didn't make my Top 20. I've really enjoyed 2006.
