Will try and get my list up too soon. But I too will hold off on ranking them until I get some albums that are still on my to-buy list.
Oh ah aah oh, ah aah oh ahhhhahh, NOTHING AND EVERYTHING! You all have inspired me to do my own list! If I could only get home to get started on it!
I'm so glad to see someone else who likes swan island. They are amazing!
