I still have a couple days, right? I still haven't ever listened to Donuts or Of Natural History.

Absent those, right now it's The Way Out in #1 and Laughing Stock as #2, both by a wide margin. I'll vote when I'm done them all.

Listened to those last two. Have to admit I was disappointed by Donuts, as equally as I was impressed by The Way Out. (In fact, I had always imagined Donuts sounding like The Way Out.)

So it's The Way Out at #1 for me, followed by Laughing Stock.

Based on my tastes, age, etc, I should be pretty enamored with Talk Talk. But for some reason, I never got what people rave about that group. Even with my dislike of hip hop, the Talk Talk came out at the bottom of this ten for me.

I enjoyed getting to know this fun variety pack of a top 10. I had only heard In Rainbows and Hounds Of Love (an old favourite I used to own), so I listened to the others, and Hounds Of Love again because it had been years. Sleepytime Gorilla Museum was the new one I liked the most. That was great! A really interesting, varied, fun record.

Here's how I ranked them:-

1. Of Natural History 8.5
2. The Way Out 8.5
3. Hounds Of Love 8.5
4. In Rainbows 8
5. Laughing Stock 8
6. The Runners Four 8
7. Endtroducing... 7
8. Donuts 7
9. Selected Ambient Works Volume II 6.5
10. Music For 18 Musicians not rated (first album I listened to after Christmas celebrations and I accidentally had it left on shuffle - after an hour or so I realised and I can't judge it on that disjointed way of listening to it, and I wasn't enjoying it enough to listen again)
