The G-Man Album of the Year 2010 : 50-11

Last years list was a Top 25 but, after weeks of sifting through various albums and revisiting January to May releases (which seems so far away now) it became quite clear that this figure would have to be doubled. I must admit I even found it tough to whittle the shortlist (from 92) down to 50 which shows how good a year it has been for music no matter what the big record label fatcats try to tell us.
To add a little excitement to the unveiling this post will contain album 50 down to album 11. Ooooooooo…..
