The Time Machine's Most Played Albums Of 2007

Posted about 1 year ago


It's the first day of 2008 and we decided to look back at our most played albums on the air for 2007. Everyone argued over a top ten or twenty list because there were so many choices. We decided that instead of bickering over different music choices (and trust us...this is what we love to do...bicker about movies and music), we would present to you our most played albums on the air last year. This way there was no wiggle room for critical favorites. The funny part was that after the list was completed, everyone gathered around, smiled and agreed that these albums did fill our hearts and souls musically and that's all that matters in the end. In addition to Micah Wolf's debut album, "All Together Now" (with The Bangles, Marshall Crenshaw and Rachael Yamagata) and "Under The Covers Vol. 1" from Matthew Sweet and Susanna Hoffs, both Lily Allen and Amy Winehouse garnered a bit of airplay from their 2006 releases into the year 2007 but the albums below are actually titles that came out in 2007 that dominated our playlists.







A large number of spins for sixty-six albums in no particular ranking outside of the first choice.

  1. dermahrk says That is quite the list. I plan to keep it around for future reference. My calculations say you listed 65 CDs. I own 9 of these, know about another 16, but the vast majority - 40 - are totally unfamiliar to me. So, this is my homework assignment for 2008, I guess. I'll get to work...

    Speaking of Rachael...check out the audio clip of her on our Christmas show last week.

    Click here for our "audio spill over page" on MySpace Music and look for the first track in the player.

    It should be up for a few more days.
