    Favourite albums of 2006 (not in any particular order):



    Incubus - Light Grenades

    nad damn, now that i think about it, all of 2006 i only got all sorts of old albums, because i was interested in grunge greatly, so thats probably the only album i've got of 2006.

    David Sylvian's _Snow Bourne Sorrow_ (under the banner Nine Horses) and John Foxx/Louis Gordon's _From Trash_ were not only my favourite albums of 2006, theyre among my favourite Cds to date. Both feature what each artist does best ,with a production that sets it apart from their past albums in a good way. Also, I was surprised to enjoy Robbie Williams Rudebox and more surprised that Pet Shop Boys _Fundamental_ was terrible! I swapped it for The Beautiful South's _Superbi_ which was ten times better.

    One more while I'm on a roll , Prince's _3121_ for me,proved to be his most straight forward enjoyable pop album since Purple Rain in 1984.
