Amendment to the Album List Below:

I didn't realize William Fitzsimmons' "Gold in the Shadow" came out in 2011. So I would like to move it to my #6 album of the year, pushing back my last three albums. If you haven't heard of Willy Fitz, he is beautiful. Just beautiful. Rather mellow, though. So if you're not into that, you won't like him. But he is great. He is a psychotherapist turned musician, so his lyrics are sad and interesting. Just how I like it.
