Yes, it's that time of year again; when Dan makes lists. First up, my top albums of the past 12 months; a list which seems to get shorter every year (25 in 2006, 20 in 2007, 15 this year). Not sure if I'm getting more discerning, more narrow-minded or just don't find enough time to listen to new music anymore. Whatever, there have been some cracking releases from a mix of old and new artists (ok, mostly old). Interested to hear what you think's missing...

Thanks for only making it 15. Because your musical taste is very similar to mine, I've filled my collection every year with Whatever Dan Taylor Thinks Is OK. This year will be cheaper. Good.
you forgot Portishead - 'Third' !
Sigur Ros and Laura Marling are missing! http://www.londonn16.co.uk/2008/11/albums-of-2009.html
You've just cost me a lot of money ;-)
Thanks, that's a great list.
I agree with ETCOOK and Chris. Portishead Third and Sigur Ros missing from that list. I'm not overly keen on the Elbow album. Good. Not great. No better than the Doves last album.
