Comment:

Disc One is an accumulation of songs (not necessarily the best, but whatever went together well) from what I consider to be the Top 20 albums of the year (in no particular order) - HOWEVER, I couldn't fit them all onto a single CD (thanks to those impudent Noise artists with their 8+ minute songs), so what I decided to do was split the last four tracks onto a second CD, and fill the rest of that CD with what I considered to be other great songs released this year from albums that didn't make my Top 20, but were pretty great nonetheless. Enjoy.

Seeing this mix makes me realize how much music I've missed this year! I'd love to listen to this to catch up!

Your Cello compilation is still a favorite with me. And I'd love to hear what you saw/heard that was remarkable in 2005. Please let me know if you are up for a trade.

Great stuff GambleOn! (The Super Furry ones seemed to get passed by or forgotten on many of these lists, unsure why.)

Happy to see someone else appreciate the Debt Collection. Lot's of other great albums/tracks featured on here also. Although i'm ashamed to say there's a few i've never heard of...as yet.

Great stuff, GambleOn. Like DeadMan, I'm looking at this and thinking "Man, what a lot of stuff I've missed." Let me know if you'd be up for a trade.
