Re: The Official 2010 Rank 'em as You Hear Them Thread
I just want to point out that, regardless of the low level of full participation here, the wide variety of ratings is a testament to the overall greatness of this year so far - a lot of the same albums are at opposite albums of the spectrum on different people's lists, which says to me that it's an overall great year regardless of one's preference/taste.

I'm pretty late to this thread, but in my defense...I haven't been inspired to buy many 2010 releases! Anyway, I'm using my same generic categorization scheme from the other Rank 'Em threads.
Outstanding
Up on the Ridge by Dierks Bentley
Impressive
American VI: Ain't No Grave by Johnny Cash
Lifted Off the Ground by Chely Wright
iTunes Originals by Norah Jones [iTunes exclusive digital album]
Album Number Two by Joey + Rory
Average
Speak Now by Taylor Swift
Disappointing
Ain't Back Yet by Kenny Chesney [Walmart exclusive CD single]

I'm now cutting this one loose but not locking it just in case there was anyone (else) wanting to post their top picks of 2010!
