What did you think of this? I really disliked it at first but it has steadily grown on me since then.

I haven't listened to it, since it's technically a X-mas gift.

Another year over! I think I've managed to get everything listed. I enjoy making year-end CDs, so keeping a list here really helps in remembering what I've purchased through the year. Have a rocking New Year everyone!

final four purchases, see post #33
