Top 100 Music Albums of the 2000s
by 
Jimmy Dread 
Tricky to compile this 2000s chart. Sure there's quite a lot I've forgotten - maybe when I get my brain working I'll realise I've left out the Moldy Peaches or something and rehash this. For the moment however please find below 100 LPs that made the last decade for me - everything from the rebirth of folk and indie pop to an album that took 40 years to make. Comments to come, one album per artist, duplication with overall Top 100 avoided where possible... NOW UPDATED FOR FIRST TIME IN AN AGE... AND STILL STRUGGLING TO WORK OUT IF I'VE MISSED OWT OUT...

There is so much on here I have never heard of, but based on the ones I know I love it. I think I'm going to use this list as ideas next time I want some new music. Thanks :)
