After he attended an Open Mic Night at Eddie’s Attic, Willy B. left an album by Emily Moldy at Korea. I’m really digging her sound. Sort of a White Lauryn Hill of sorts (I think her hair is dreaded). Her website describes her as Alternative/Folk Rock/Neo-Soul. Sounds good to me. It’s a great “organize your closet” kind of music, well really, that’s just what I’ve been up to mostly.

PASTE magazine recently released lists of the “best” (music, books, film, games) of the decade. As the decade rapidly comes to a close, I thought I would list my own…some are the same, but many are different.
Here’s my criteria:
1. It had to be an album that I enjoyed in the truest form–not just one or two great songs.
2. It had to have been stuck in my “CD changer” for an extended period of time
3. I often go back to it, and I never get sick of it.
4. Something that I PERSONALLY really enjoy, not just something that I think I am supposed to like.
