There are my favorites of your countdown Good top

[Dr. Spaceman]

I really like that you include older albums on your list! Often, you don't hear an album the year it comes out, or you have heard it, but it doesn't reveal its greatness until a year or two later. A nice touch! My favourites from the 20 that I missed are She & Him, The Shins, Japandroids, and Tim Hecker. I haven't heard a lot of these albums, but i will definitely keep them on my radar, as your taste is excellent.

Great stuff as always, Charlie!
